About Amanda K. Purifoy

Hello! Marhaba! Nǐ hǎo! Konnichiwa! ¡Hola!

I’m Amanda Purifoy, also known as “The Passport Teacher.” As a veteran educator and school counselor, I’ve had the privilege of teaching PK-12 students worldwide. My passion is helping students reach their full academic potential. With experience in diverse settings, including international schools, I’ve developed expertise in curriculum planning, differentiated instruction, and student counseling.

My unique approach fosters a supportive learning environment, enabling students to overcome both academic and personal challenges. I’m dedicated to providing tailored support that guides each student toward success in their learning journey.
