Miss Martin

Year 2 Teacher / Head of Primary

I am both honoured and excited to be Head of Primary at the English International School (EIS) Moscow. My journey here has been incredibly fulfilling, having taught Year 1 and 2, served as the EYFS/KS1 Coordinator, and Lead in Primary planning. EIS is a remarkable educational institution where every child thrives in a nurturing environment. Our students feel happy, safe, and intellectually challenged , which is essential for their growth and development.

My experience at EIS has been rewarding; I continue to cherish my time here as I witness the positive impact we have on our students' lives. With over three decades of teaching experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my role. My qualifications include a 2:1 Bachelor of Education Honours Degree from Manchester University. Additionally, I have served as Deputy Head of Primary in two London schools and held positions as Head of EYFS and SENDCO, allowing me to build a broad understanding of age-related expectations.

I was born in Northern Ireland, at five years old we moved to London. My mother served as a Headteacher at a school in London, and it was through observing her dedication and commitment to education that I developed my own passion for the field. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy singing, dancing, acting, and traveling. However, my favourite pastime is spending quality time with my amazingly supportive family.
