Teacher Liz

Elizabeth Reid received her training in Early Childhood Education in England and she now has over 30 years of experience. “Teacher Liz,” as the children call her, has been the hidden gem at Little People’s Preschool for more than 25 years. During this time, she has received numerous awards of recognition and has played a significant part in the development of Early Childhood Education teaching programs. Teacher Liz’s gift for fostering the development and socialization of young children derives from her enthusiasm and creativity.

A typical preschool morning at Little People’s is filled with “teachable moments.” Each day Teacher Liz includes, and encourages, a hands on program full of every opportunity to expand on each child’s sense of wonder. Her goal: to answer the never ending questions of why and how does this work? Her energy and enthusiasm for the children is so infectious that parents find their ‘duty days’ a joy!

Teacher Liz ensures that a well-rounded program is offered. There are many opportunities for art, music, science, drama, and fantasy: both indoors and outdoors. She encourages big muscle skills to develop the children’s strength and coordination. Teacher Liz’s energy rubs off on the children and it is no wonder that she has been described by the Westcoast Families newspaper as “a modern-day Mary Poppins!”

Teacher Liz is a very active person within her community and believes in the importance of her work so strongly that she also spends some evenings educating adults in Early Childhood Education (ECE) at the North Shore Continuing Education Lucas Centre. Further, Liz has been an active member of the ECE Team at Langara College. There she was on the Articulation and Advisory Board where she assisted in creating the outline for Langara ECE students. In addition, Liz attends monthly work shops put on by the Parent Participation Preschool (PPP) Teachers Association. Teacher Liz is the past President and past Vice President of the PPP Teachers™ Association.
