I love this job because I feel like I am part of something that is bigger than myself, every day is a new experience and there is never a dull moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>This is your first time teaching in Sabah, Malaysia. How are you finding it?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sabah is beautiful! I love waking up to the sunshine every day.\u00a0\u00a0One of my favourite parts of living here is always being close to beautiful tropical beaches. With regards to teaching here, the children are very respectful and I am learning about their cultures and traditions which is exciting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What makes the KIS Community special?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The KIS Community is so special because everyone works so collaboratively. Teachers, parents and the Board work in harmony to create an environment where learning is at the centre and the students are the focus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>The Year 2 class is always buzzing with learning fun! Tell us more about the 2 months \u2018Outdoor Learning\u2019 activity that started early February this year.\u00a0 How are your students and parents responding to it so far?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think it is so important for children to discover that learning doesn\u2019t only take place inside the classroom! By going outside Mrs Mullan and I are hoping to help spark curiosity about nature and the environment whilst also keeping active as we learn about habitats! The students are responding really well and we hope that this can be something that continues long term! We have also had some parents come along, they have enjoyed participating in their children\u2019s learning and I think that adds to the home\/ school partnership that KIS values.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/teacher-tuesday-ms-amy-bater-copy\/img_1782-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12392\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"762\" height=\"572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2-255x191.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1782-2.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/teacher-tuesday-mr-victor-ricardo\/img_1491\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12396\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1491-e1582593279295-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"756\" height=\"1010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1491-e1582593279295-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_1491-e1582593279295-255x340.jpg 255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 756px) 100vw, 756px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/teacher-tuesday-ms-amy-bater-copy\/dsc_0120\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12391\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"761\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120-255x170.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0120.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 761px) 100vw, 761px\" \/><\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What do you find most rewarding about being a teacher?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teaching is a truly special job because I feel like we are equipping the future generations for a life where they can achieve amazing things!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>If you could be a superhero for a day, who would you want to be and why?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Superman!
