Originally from the pristine mountains of British Columbia, Alison grew up loving sports and activity. From an early age, she decided she wanted to follow her dreams of playing Univiesrity Basketball and become a Physical Education Teacher. Ever since moving to Vietnam 9 years ago, Alison has expanded her practice through technology, TGFU, the Sport Education model, health and found a deep passion for wellbeing and social-emotional programs that equip students with the tools they need to thrive. Like all PE enthusiasts, her life's mission is to instill a value and passion for being active for life in her students. Outside of the classroom in her roles as the EC-12 Personal Development Coordinator and the Wellness Committee Chair she is grateful for the opportunities she has had to create a lasting impact on the social-emotional wellbeing of all community members at SSIS. Alison would love to connect with you on twitter (@PELeathwood) to share resources and engage in conversations that will improve experiences for all.
