Patricia Locke grew up speaking both English and German in the United States, England and Germany, which sparked her early interest in different cultures and perspectives.

After qualifying as a secondary school teacher in Germany, she gained wide-ranging experience in education – in grammar schools, adult education, and language teaching for various companies and educational institutions. She was also part of the founding team of a private bilingual comprehensive school, where she contributed her expertise to an innovative learning community concept. 

What matters most to her is inspiring children with a joy for learning and supporting them on their journey through a complex and ever-changing world. Her focus lies in creating learning environments that not only support academic progress but also nurture social and emotional development while promoting essential learning strategies.

As a bilingual herself, she knows how valuable multilingualism is for learning and for understanding the world. She is particularly focused on future-oriented, digitally enriched teaching that motivates pupils, meets them where they are, and equips them for the demands of the future.

In her free time, she loves travelling, keeping active, and spending time in, on and around the water. Nature and physical activity are important sources of energy and inspiration for her.
