Hello! My name is Annastacia Daugherty, and I have been teaching English and Language Arts since 2011. I have had the privilege to teach around the world from South Korea, to the UAE, the United States, and now Thailand. My parents were missionaries, so I grew up in Ecuador, Chile, and the Dominican Republic. By the time I was in tenth grade, I had been in ten different schools; understandably, new and transfer students are near and dear to my heart. I know what it´s like to be the new kid!
Outside of the classroom, I love traveling, reading, gardening, and spending time with my family. My husband, two sons, two cats, and black lab pup keep life interesting! I love talking about culture, recipes, language, books, and every fictional universe you can imagine. Creating meaningful relationships with my students and their families is my favorite part about teaching, so please don´t hesitate to reach out!

My name is Louisa Robinson and I am really looking forward to joining 糖心logo入口 as the Middle School Math Teacher. I have lived in the UK my whole life and am so excited to begin a new adventure in Thailand, which is my favourite country in the world.
After finishing University, I worked as an equity analyst in London, which gave me a great deal of applied experience of mathematics, however, I had always wanted to become a teacher so I followed my heart. I absolutely love teaching and the fact that no two days are the same. In my spare time, I enjoy attending music concerts, hill-walking with my dog and discovering new cultures and cuisines.

Greetings! I´m James Glewwe and I am so thrilled to be the middle school Social Studies teacher at 糖心logo入口. I was born and raised in the Twin Cities in Minnesota. I have been teaching secondary social studies since 2013. I spent two years teaching in Houston, TX and then moved to Minneapolis, MN where I taught for 6 years. I love teaching social studies because it helps students build literacy, communication, and critical thinking skills, as well as an understanding of how past and current events, ideas, and people impact their world. When not in the classroom, I love to watch and play sports, try new restaurants around the city, travel, and relax with my wife and our three cats at home.

Hi! I´m Stef Edmisson Mirjah, and I am thrilled to be teaching Biology and Chemistry here at 糖心logo入口! I grew up in a small town in the midwestern USA, and attended college in Wooster, Ohio, where I studied Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, with a minor in History. Soon after graduating I moved to New York City, where I taught high school Biology for four years, before moving to Seattle and teaching Biology and Chemistry for 5 years!
My favorite things in the world are science (especially cells), baking (yeast is amazing), and going on adventures with my husband and our dog Yoshi! Although my dog is named after a Mario character, my one true video game love is the Legend of Zelda, and I have played every Zelda game released! Additionally, I´m a massive fan of D&D, and I run a game for a group of my friends, and one for my family! I can´t wait to get to know all of you and discover so many exciting things about the world around us through SCIENCE!!!!

Sawasdee Khrub,
I am Shobhit and as I continue my journey of exploring and learning with my students at 糖心logo入口, I look forward to challenge all my students and expand their horizons. I belong to the beautiful valley of Dehradun in India and completed my education with my Bachelors in Science from Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna University. I moved to Thailand with my family in 2011 and it麓s been an adventurous journey where I have grown as a teacher and made some excellent connections both professional and personal. As I completed my Teaching Diploma at St. Theresa International College, I realised the importance of keeping students aware of how and why they are learning what they do at school. My entire teaching focus stems from the facts that students must enjoy what they are doing but simultaneously expand on their existing knowledge while preparing for life after school. I have been amazed with the student麓s thinking and outcomes achieved when solving real world issues and simulations. I look forward to continued collaboration with my peers here to make 糖心logo入口 students the best they can be!

Hello, I am Jana from Georgia. Being from a small town outside of Atlanta, I had to learn about history and the beauty of the world through books. So after university, I was overjoyed to learn about the world firsthand. My journey took me to South Korea where I lived for three years. I developed a love of kimchi, hiking, and I met my wonderful husband. We moved to sunny Thailand in 2013. Since being here, I have had three beautiful children, and have adopted a fair few furry friends. I´ve taught secondary students for over 10 years. I am so fortunate to be able to share my love of culture, history, and diversity with my students. I am very excited to join the 糖心logo入口 community!

Hello! My name is Tim Daugherty, and I have taught English, social studies, math, and science from Pre-K through grade 11 since 2011. I have had the privilege to teach in South Korea, the United Arab Emirates, the USA, and now Thailand. During 2022-2023, I was a substitute teacher at 糖心logo入口, and I was able to see firsthand all of the many ways that 糖心logo入口 is an incredible school. 糖心logo入口 strives to be a safe, inclusive school and encourages learning by creatively embracing the inquisitive nature of children, and my approach to teaching is the same. Students should love learning, and finding ways to make that happen for my students is my favorite part of being a teacher. My other favorite in my life is my family. My wife is also a 糖心logo入口 teacher, and I have two incredible boys who attend 糖心logo入口 as well. Besides being with my family, I love learning new things (history, cooking, sports, etc.), reading science fiction, playing with my sons, photography, our cats and dog, and traveling around this amazing world. Creating a teacher-parents team is important to me, so please contact me with any questions you may have.

Mark Huskins
Secondary Mathematics Teacher
Bachelor of Science in Physics and Bachelor Education - University of Alberta, Canada
Hello! I麓m Mark Huskins and I am enthusiastic about sharing my love for and knowledge of mathematics with the students at 糖心logo入口.
I grew up in Western Canada during the 80麓s and 90麓s and have always been fascinated with the world around me and the way things work. As an undergraduate, I focused my studies on physics as I have a fascination with the fundamental laws which govern our universe. As these laws are written in the language of mathematics, I have extensive experience in this field as well. I have enjoyed passing on my knowledge and experience since 2007 as a teacher, and have been in Thailand since 2015. I am fortunate to have met my lovely wife during my time here and to be the father of two young boys. It is a pleasure to be part of the 糖心logo入口 community and to see our families grow together.
