My name is Beryl, which means precious gemstone. I grew up in Germany and moved to the UK at the age of 12 years. Due to my bilingual background I have personal experience in multilingual language acquisition matters.
I have always wanted to work with children and feel privileged to work in a profession that supports a child’s communication development. I am passionate about my work and enjoy ‘packaging’ the activities to bring enjoyment to the children I work with. Since graduating from the Reading University (UK) where I obtained my BSc in Speech and Language Therapy in 2007, I have worked with the peadiatric caseload across mainstream, special needs and inclusion-provision settings.
I love meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures, particularly over food since I enjoy exploring different cuisines. My favourite cuisines include Korean, Iranian, Bahraini, Greek and German food.
I have lived in Dubai since Summer 2015 and love waking up to the sunshine and spending time on the beach at the weekend. I love Musical Theatre and enjoy shows such as the Lion King, Matilda and Top Hat.
