Ms. Yana Glibova
Kindergarten Teacher
“I am a devoted member of the Little Owl team and passionate about teaching. It is important to me to be a positive role model and ensure that all students’ unique needs and goals are met.”

Mr. Joshua Itwaru
Music Teacher
“It is my duty and goal to uphold the belief and education of the Little Owl School, by providing its students with the discipline and understanding of the philosophy and theory of music. Alongside that, it is my daily right to institute the qualities of excellence, generosity, integrity and dignity in each individual so that they may be the light in dark places”

Ms Julia Galinsky
Elementary Teacher
“A child’s mind is like a “tabula rasa”, it is a blank slate. The environment shapes the genetics underneath. I am passionate about bringing forth the best version of the student and motivating them to be honourable, educated, intelligent, sophisticated and independent thinkers. “Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each” ~ Plato. Developing confidence in children is vital aspect of educating. As they mature and blossom, their self-esteem develops, and they realize that there is a beautiful world open for them to discover and play a pivotal role in.”

Ms. Sonya Pacheco
Elementary Teacher
“At Little Owl, we have a wide range of teaching approaches that give students the tools they need to succeed. The teachers also work together, collaborating and sharing ideas in the commitment to giving students a well-rounded experience.”

Ms. Larysa Teslyuk
Elementary Teacher
“Little Owl is a united and caring community. We have a warm and cozy atmosphere where students can feel appreciated. There are many educational resources that children can us to grow with and that teachers use to develop children’s reading, writing and speaking skills”

Ms. Mariam Kvachidze
"My teaching philosophy is that each child is unique. Thus, I believe, as a teacher, I am responsible of creating an invigorating educational environment to support students' sociological, physical, personal, mental, emotional, and academic development. As a teacher, I always try to encourage students to express their ideas freely."

Ms. Madeline Lai
Kindergarten/Elementary Teacher
“Dalai Lama once said “Education is much more than a matter of imparting the knowledge and skills by which narrow goals are achieved. It is also about opening the child’s eyes to the needs and rights of others”. I strive to not only create a warm, welcoming, educational environment where my students gained knowledge on the required subjects, but also encourage them to think outside the box & channel their inner creativity and personalities as well as providing them with a support system so they can thrive emotionally, socially, academically, physically and become resilient, responsible, respectful, and enthusiastic young individuals.”

Ms. Laura Famiglietti
"I believe that education is key to accessing the modern world. Teaching students knowledge is only part of the process, it is also about teaching students how this knowledge can have real world applications. I always try to give students the opportunity to build their creativity and critical thinking skills, because I want them to be able to think for themselves, developing their interests and understandings. I want my students to enjoy learning and take ownership for their learning in order for them to be successful."
