Christine Theron

Christine joins Stamford with 15 years of experience in varied educational settings in South Korea, South Africa, Mexico, and Hong Kong. Before completing her PGCE, she was awarded a Master of Science in Education and a Postgraduate Honors degree in Development Studies. For her undergraduate Bachelor of Social Science degree, she majored in Psychology and Anthropology. Christine also has experience working in the NGO sector in social and educational development and believes in education as a change agent for growth and opportunities. Her Master’s thesis focused on social support and justice in mitigating inequality in education. Christine loves learning and encourages intellectual curiosity in her students to boost their academic and creative potential.

Christine says, “I believe that creating a meaningful and comfortable learning environment where students can engage and apply their knowledge to real-world contexts is an essential part of learning. Being able to extend learning beyond the classroom by instilling the kinds of skills students need to succeed in life is something I strive to do. I also believe that an enthusiastic teacher who celebrates a student’s success, however small, can make a world of difference.”
