Meet the Teacher: Ms Amélie Pralle
Linguist. Anthropologist. Educational thinker. Environmentalist. Meet Ms Amélie Pralle.
What do you get when you combine nearly a decade of teaching experience, an Anthropology degree, expertise in concept-based learning, an excellent track record teaching English through to Year 8, and experience preparing pupils for the 11+?
You get Ms Amélie Pralle. And we’re rather lucky to have her.
Born and raised in Madrid to English and French parents, Amélie brings an international perspective to NHP, alongside a passion for academic excellence and intellectual curiosity.
Before joining NHP, she taught in state schools, including preparing children for the 11+, and spent time teaching in Amsterdam, where she became a certified instructor in Concept-Based Teaching and Learning.
Her experience includes teaching English through to Year 8 and achieving excellent results, but what really excites her is how children think—not simply what they know.
It is this belief in critical, creative and reflective thinking that drew her to NHP: an accredited Thinking School where academic challenge and curiosity go hand in hand.
Today, Amélie is a Year 5 form teacher, teaches English in Years 5 and 6, leads Modern Foreign Languages and champions sustainability across the school. She is also helping our Eco-Club work towards its Green Flag Award in 2027.
And when she’s not inspiring young minds? You’ll find her diving beneath the waves, climbing mountains, reading voraciously or walking on Hampstead Heath.
Academic expertise. Intellectual curiosity. A love of learning that is infectious.
That’s the NHP difference.
