Sheena loves working with young children. She strongly believes that real learning comes from intrinsic motivation and strives to create a student-centered and inquiry-based classroom environment. 

Sheena is originally from Guangzhou, but also considers the super nature filled British Columbia in Canada as her second and recent home. After completing a Bachelor of Arts in teaching, Sheena continued to pursue her passion for education at the University of Northern British Columbia in Canada and completed a Master’s Degree in Education. Sheena has spent years researching early year literacy in Canada. In that time, she has constructed and published a research-based handbook about formative assessment for Grade 2 teachers in British Columbia, Canada.  

Outside the classroom, Sheena is a RYT-200 certified yoga teacher and freelance children’s author.  She is currently working on picture books for beginning readers.
