Staff Testimonials


I joined The BSN Language Centre five years ago after twelve years of teaching in the Dutch system. I was immediately impressed by The BSN’s high standards and the opportunities available for students and staff.  The opportunity to grow within an organisation, with professional development support along the way, wasn’t something I had experienced before. 

After two years with the Language Centre I joined Junior School Vlaskamp, teaching Dutch as part of The BSN curriculum. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to work on developing the Dutch curriculum together with the rest of the department. As well as excellent annual professional development opportunities, the atmosphere day to day across The BSN is one of sharing expertise and working hard together to give the students the best education we can. Another benefit of working at The BSN is support with work/life balance. A group of colleagues and I have enjoyed activities through the school's Well-being Fund, such as yoga and squash.

It is fair to say I really found what I was looking for in my teaching career when I joined The BSN. As well as teaching at JSV, I also joined the Senior School team last year. Having the opportunity to broaden my experience by working across two of our campuses, with different age groups, is a fantastic opportunity which I’m really enjoying.
