Have you ever travelled to any countries other than Canada (Miss Bauman is Canadian)?

Yes
What is your favourite novel to teach?
Lord of flies
What are your hobbies?
Music and drama
Have you taught anything other than English?
Yes, I’ve taught drama before
What is the best thing about being a tutor at Northgate?
Seeing my students grow up.
What is your favourite vegetable?

What are your phobias?
Spiders
Are there any books that scare you?
Not scare, necessarily, but thriller novels are always hard to read right before bed because they start to play tricks on your mind.
Thank you to Miss Bauman for taking the time to answer the questions. We look forward to hearing who our News Team decide to interview next.
