Hello! My name is Emily Hanson and I am a second year, elementary teacher candidate at the University of Northern British Columbia. I am a Jesus follower, a wife, a cat mom, a thrill seeker, a creator, a lover of life and a lifelong learner.

I was born, raised and have made my home here in Prince George, BC. Although I have lived here in PG for the past 24 years, I love to travel and explore with my husband (our most recent and greatest adventure being Mo’orea, French Polynesia) and experience all of the beauty of creation.

The foundation of my teaching philosophy is love. I believe that if every single child feels loved, cared for and safe within the classroom, they will be able to grow into the lifelong learner they were created to be! This program has taught me so much about myself as a person and educator and I am so excited to continue to learn and grow as I begin my career!
