Jessica Ripper

Year 6 Classroom Teacher

BA(hons) Primary Education

With ten years of teaching experience (seven of which have been international), Jessica has been exposed to a variety of teaching approaches, including a Reggio Emilia school where she developed an appreciation for self-directed, experiential learning in relationship-driven settings. She aims to create an environment where her learners can grow and embrace continuous learning. Jessica's specialty is drama; she has designed and implemented drama programs and directed school productions alongside using drama as a teaching tool. Her goal is to use her creative skills to build self-esteem and well-being by enhancing interpersonal understanding through creative experiences that reinforce learning. It is her aim to provide memorable experiences that integrate skills for communication and problem-solving so that her learners leave her classroom with lifelong transferrable skills for success.
