About

Hello,

I’m Valerie and I’m a teacher and horticulturist.

After teaching in secondary school and adult education I made the move to Holland and settled in Amsterdam. Here I taught English for a number of years and then followed a long-held ambition to get a qualification and work as a professional organic/biodynamic and landscape gardener. In time teaching became part of my gardening world too, working with school children, interested individuals and colleagues.

I now teach English, horticulture and tutor young people in and around Amsterdam.
