My name is Ruth Alexander, I am a 52 year old Early Years Teacher/Tutor from Scotland and am now looking to develop my career further as a Governess. I have been teaching for 32 years, 26 of those years have been overseas…Germany, Oman, South Korea and Egypt. I am very experienced and well-travelled, outgoing, positive, creative and fun. I love working with children and have been involved in not just teaching and tutoring them but also doing birthday parties and activity groups for them. I perceive myself as a cross between Nanny McPhee and Mary Poppins! Since working as a private tutor I have built up a very close working relationship with the children I work with and their parents. I have very high expectations of what a child can achieve. Learning should be fun, the children should be involved on every level and whenever possible different learning styles should be addressed. I think good manners and etiquette are also very important. “Children are the world`s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future” John F Kennedy
