MEd, BA (International)
Thomas grew up in a rural community in Cavan, Ireland. He graduated with a Honours Bachelor of Arts (International) in French and Irish from Dublin City University, Ireland. During his studies, he participated in the Erasmus programme, spending a year at the University of Lorraine in France, which deepened his appreciation for French language and culture. He then completed a two-year Master of Education at Trinity College Dublin.
After his postgraduate studies, Thomas moved to Scotland, where he worked in Glasgow, supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) and English as an Additional Language (EAL). He taught a variety of subjects, including French, English, and Health & Wellbeing. Upon returning to Ireland, he joined a secondary school in South Dublin, focusing on language instruction.
Now entering his fifth-year teaching EAL at Britannica International School, Thomas is also in his fourth year as Head of Department. His goal is to cultivate a stimulating and engaging learning environment where students of all English proficiency levels can thrive and achieve success. He is committed to challenging students whilst being both proactive and responsive to the diverse needs of his students.
