Who We Are

Lisa Yao received her Bachelors of Education from The University of British Columbia in 2016. Midway through her teaching practicum, Ms. Yao realized that she had both a desire and a passion to help support different learners. Prompted by this realization, she worked towards expanding her own knowledge and skills with the goal of supporting both the academic and personal growth of all types of students.

In addition to teaching in schools, Ms. Yao has also taught in VanDusen Gardens, the Vancouver Aquarium, and in an Orton-Gillingham tutoring centre. She joined Fraser Academy in 2017 and is pleased to have the opportunity to work closely with other educators and use her experience to help students develop both the skills and the confidence they need to flourish.
