The Glow Early Learning Team

Becki Sardeson - Director

“I have had the great joy and privilege of working in the field of education for more than 20 years. Through this span of time, I have manoeuvred through middle school with 11 to 13 year olds, I have travelled with teenagers through high school and I have engaged with eager elementary students. But the children that I find most wonderful to work with are toddlers and preschoolers. Their curious questions are fun and thoughtful, their observations creative and their exploration of the world around them is such a joy.

My hope is that each day at Glow ELC, your child will discover more about themselves, others and the world around them in a safe and play-filled environment. We are so glad they are here!”

Sopheara Kim - Curriculum Director

“Hi! My name is Kim Sopheara. For over 14 years I have engaged with preschool and elementary children both inside and outside the classroom. Over these years, I have learned that each child is unique and special. Their capacity for creativity, eagerness to explore the world and care for each other has greatly impacted my life.

At Glow ELC, I build relationships with children, so they can dream big, discover their creativity, and become life-long learners. Together we will play our way through early education.”

Bunnaro Vong - Office Administrator

“My name is Bunnaro Vong, and I have been privileged to work in the field of education since 2014, serving in various roles within international schools. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience working with students, teachers, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds. This experience has deepened my understanding of how education can truly transform lives. Working in international schools has taught me that education is far more than academic learning it is about nurturing curiosity, confidence, and character. I have witnessed first hand how a supportive learning environment can empower students to discover their strengths and develop a lifelong love of learning.

Through my journey in education, I have learned that every student has unique potential, and it is our duty as educators to guide, inspire, and support them in becoming the best versions of themselves. I believe that when children feel safe and loved, they can truly shine and that is what we strive for every day at Glow ELC.”

Ella Wilson - Teacher

“I have been working with children for eight years, and every opportunity I’ve had to invest in a child’s life has been an absolute joy. I have experience in using creative learning methods with pre-primary and primary-aged children, and I believe it’s important to combine academics with a sense of fun! I love spending time with kids, engaging in art, music and movement to help them develop their imaginations alongside their academic development. My experience has taught me to value each child’s individual sense of self and right to explore their world in a safe environment. Working with pre-primary-aged children is a privilege for me, as I get to support them at such a crucial state in their lives, and I’m dedicated to making Glow Early Learning a safe and welcoming place for our kids to flourish in!”
