While what children learn is important, equally important is how they learn. Heidi Ashton is an international educator with many years of experience. She is the PYP Coordinator at International Preparatory School in Mapou. She is Canadian by birth but has spent most of her adult life living overseas, having previously worked in Asia, Europe and North America.
