If you do, you will never cease to grow” (Anthony J. D ’Angelo). According to Miss Gomes being a teacher is like being a tour guide, where all children are encouraged to exercise their curiosity and discover the world in which they live. As a teacher she aims to guide and assist her pupils to grasp the foundational building blocks which are essential for lifelong learning.
