Miss Samantha Taranto

Y1A Homeroom Teacher


Ms Samantha Taranto is from New York, USA. She received her bachelors of Science from the University of Tampa. She has been living and working in Chiang Mai for 2 years. Before moving to Thailand she was a teacher in New York City for two years. She has also taught in Kenya and Nigeria where she founded an Education Enterprise that focused on early childhood education and English language skills.
Her teaching philosophy is that students learn best when they are in a positive learning environment where they feel welcomed, comfortable, and safe. She believes that all children are unique and have something special that they can bring to their own learning.
