Once Upon a PE Lesson

From the UK to Malaysia: My Journey in PE & Advocating for Gender Equality | Podcast with SheEducates

 

Hello Listeners!
I’m so excited to share that I was recently interviewed on the SheEducates podcast! In this episode, I had a fantastic conversation about my journey as a PE teacher, from the UK to Malaysia, and the experiences that have shaped my approach to teaching and advocating for gender equality in sports.

We covered some amazing topics, including:

  • My work as the creator of Once Upon a PE Lesson, developing creative resources for EYFS PE
  • The importance of gender equality in sports, particularly in the Asian context
  • How Ju Jitsu has become a vital outlet for maintaining a balanced lifestyle
  • Tips and insights for those interested in international teaching

I’d love to hear your thoughts—what resonates with you, and how do you approach gender equality and creativity in your teaching?

GCSE PE isn’t popular in Malaysia because of a priority placed on academic subjects – and students are suffering for it
