Josh Keller (he/him) has been with PSS for seven years as both the Oaks educator and, more recently, the French teacher as well. He counts himself extremely lucky to have found PSS, for working here has allowed him to dedicate himself to supporting each child’s intellectual, artistic, athletic, and empathetic self. He’s also grateful for all the experience he’s gained in herding cats! 

Josh comes from a background in language education, and he draws upon that in his current practice. Learning a language, and learning in general, requires building schema to understand concepts and drawing from many different sources for knowledge–such as art and music. Josh approaches everything with curiosity, be it teaching, learning, or approaching any issues that may arise in class. Curiosity has no age limit, and encouraging it to flourish in every child is something Josh takes seriously.

Josh has an old, cranky cat who has no qualms about demanding food whenever she sees fit. He spends a lot of his time in the great outdoors we enjoy in BC, taking a lot of joy in hiking, skiing, and spending time on the water. Josh also has some hidden talents, but if they were listed here they wouldn’t be hidden, would they?
