Coffee & Geography 2x14 Emily Butler (Qatar)

Kit and Emily Butler brew some Tetley tea, chatting about life in Qatar teaching at an international school, sustainability in the country, a love of cats, amongst other things! Emily loves travel, nature and animals. This has encouraged her to see the world! She teaches internationally in Qatar, I teach the courses for IB and IGCSE Edexcel. Emily has implemented eco-schools into my previous and current schools and have recently taken on the role of Head of House! Enjoys teaching topics such as climate change, coasts and hazards.
