“I “grow” with them in their first steps of being a teacher”

Welcome back to Grow: A podcast from Cambridge. In this episode we’re joining English Teacher, Helmi Sonneveld in the Netherlands.

Helmi has been an inspirational teacher for over 28 years, and now trains future teachers at the start of their careers. From those nerve-wracking first steps in the classroom, through to new magical moments that make teaching so rewarding.

Discover classroom life through Helmi’s lens, with her take on working with young adult students, the true art of connecting with learners, and the invaluable lessons she’ll pass on to the next generation of educators.

Tune in to hear about:

• Developing confidence in both students and teachers
• Addressing individual learning needs with empathy and strategic approaches
• The palette of emotions that all teachers embrace throughout their career
• Opportunities which open up to learners and educators through learning the English language
• How to reframe classroom development and create connections with students
