Sarah Pan

I am a dedicated and compassionate preschool teacher with a strong background in Early Childhood Development. My teaching philosophy centres on creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing classroom environment where children feel valued, inspired, and excited to learn.

I have extensive experience in early childhood education, working with toddlers and Grade 00 learners. I specialize in creating developmentally appropriate, engaging lesson plans that encourage creativity, curiosity, and social-emotional growth. I am skilled in managing classrooms with kindness and structure, building positive relationships with children and parents, and fostering a safe, inclusive learning environment. My approach balances play-based learning with foundational academic skills, supporting each child’s unique developmental journey. I am passionate about nurturing confident, independent, and joyful learners through creative activities, music, and hands-on exploration.

I hold a Foundation Phase Degree, providing me with a strong academic and practical foundation in early childhood education, curriculum development, and child psychology. Additionally, I recently completed a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification, which has enhanced my skills in supporting language acquisition and communication for young learners, especially those from diverse linguistic backgrounds. Together, these qualifications enable me to deliver inclusive, engaging, and developmentally appropriate lessons that foster both academic and social-emotional growth in preschool and early grade learners.
