Risa Kim, born in Seoul, moved to New Zealand with her family at age 15. As a teenage immigrant, writing and speaking was the last thing she wanted to do at school although English was one of her favorite subjects in Korea before moving to NZ. And, she became a teacher. She teaches grade 6-12 visual arts and has a BFA degree in graphic design and M.Ed with a focus on curriculum and instruction and ELL instruction. Inspired by her resourceful colleagues, she has recently become an advocate for the philosophy of “play to learn” and is exploring to implement more kinesthetic activities in her art class. She gets delighted about curating student artworks and gets excited when she discovers any fun places to go to with her cute 2 daughters.
