SAMANTHA THOMPSON
Educator, Writer, Artist
ABOUT ME
I am an educator, writer, and artist.
​
My career in child care and development has allowed me to work with children with complex needs in Canada, the UK, and the USA. Inspired by these rich experiences, I chose to attend St. Mary's University to become a certified teacher.
I earned an Arts and Science Bachelor's degree from a non-traditional university that promotes innovative liberal arts education. My experience there shaped my educational philosophy into one that employs experiential learning through community engagement and interpretive, individualistic projects.
My passion is empowering others. In everything I do, I strive to inspire confidence, independence, and love –– a love for oneself, and for life in all it's wholeness.
