What do you enjoy most about your current role?
I love that. We have a bigger team because it's for Kinder teachers and the four instructional assistants. That means we have a lot more people to help collaborate, learn from, and create content for the Kinder kids.
I love being able to just be with the little ones because we have a lot of fun and a lot of breaks. That's really it.
