English worshops, Helen Doron's fun method to teach English (ESL) to children ages 3-19.
Hi I am Ann Lloyd
I am originally South African and have lived in Switzerland since 1999 with my family. I have 2 fabulous teenage boys and a handsome husband! I have had a part-time business selling English children’s books around Switzerland since 2003, while raising my boys.
Teaching has been my passion, since growing up with an English Teacher as a mother and helping her do the marking and prep work at home. I used to teach and read to my toys growing up. Over the years I have taught English part-time and been involved with training others in various settings. My husband and I were also a part of a semi-professional theatre and dance group in Sweden for 1 year. We have lived in at least 12 countries, visited more over 3 continents.
I decided to become a Helen Doron teacher in 2016 after teaching English as a Foreign/ second language and to native speakers for several years in Switzerland, and seeing the need to offer a methodology that is more child-focused. Apart from doing Helen Doron intensive training, I am a qualified parental coach and am a certified English as a Foreign/2nd language teacher (TEFL).
It has been my dream and desire to create a place where Mums of mixed cultures can meet and children can also be welcome. I am passionate about Education, Children and Families. I love seeing the process that children go through when learning and having fun at the same time. I am still learning and that is how life should be a journey of learning, to go from strength to strength.
