Anna Kusén has 20 years experience of working with children in preschool and school.
“I started a preschool in Orsa, Sweden 5 years ago and has since then been responsible for it’s educational activities and business development. Owning my own business has given me the insight that every child is unique and has their own fantastic abilities and strengths. My role as a preschool teacher is to discover these sides in the children and help develop them further. My absolute greatest strength as a preschool teacher is to get the children’s trust and confidence and with that together we can develop a relationship in respect. What the children appreciate about me is my playfulness, dependability, creativity, knowledge of circus arts, physical ability and my ability to join in the children’s interest.”

Blanca is a passionate teacher with more than 18 years of experience in schools in Sweden and is a native Spanish speaker.
“I have worked as a teacher in high school in the subjects of psychology, science and Spanish. In middle and high school I have taught Spanish, physics, chemistry, biology and technology. For the past year I have had the fantastic opportunity to work at Swedish International School with children from 2 to 5 years old and of course teaching Spanish and training the children in fine and gross motor skills. Whether they are young or older students, they all inspire me to adapt the pedagogy to the different stages and needs of the students, so in this way I can help children develop to their maximum potential.
I have special training in educational psychology that can be applied to all ages and circumstances, which encourages the student’s desire to learn, take responsibility and develop the ability to think critically and scientifically. In addition, I have had contact and exchange of knowledge with schools from different countries with children in different needs. The result of my work is that my students have developed a lot during my teaching, their study results have increased and they have also learned study techniques.”
