About JAUNITA MARIA THORNHILL

About Juanita Thornhill

Hello! I’m Juanita Thornhill, a passionate teacher based in Mission, Barima-Waini, Guyana. Living in such a vibrant region allows me to immerse myself in the rich cultural diversity that defines our beautiful country. From the lush rainforests to the mighty rivers like the Pomeroon and Shepeira, nature's beauty surrounds us, offering endless inspiration for both learning and living. I cherish every moment spent exploring our local heritage, especially the flavors of our traditional cuisine – nothing beats a plate of pepperpot or a sweet cassava pone!

As a proud Guyanese with roots tracing back to our Indian ancestors, I find joy in sharing our stories and traditions with students, ensuring they understand their heritage. Education is not just about books; it's about nurturing a connection to our identity and fostering respect for the diverse influences that shape us. I believe in the power of storytelling, whether it's recounting tales of our ancestors or discussing our neighboring countries like Venezuela, Suriname, and Brazil, which remind us of our shared Caribbean identity.

Outside the classroom, I enjoy engaging with the Guyanese diaspora, particularly through social media, where we can celebrate our culture together. I often connect with others who share my enthusiasm for exploring places like Barbs in the Netherlands or eagerly await episodes that highlight our neighbors, like Suriname. It’s heartwarming to see how far our culture travels, and I am committed to ensuring that my students appreciate and carry forward the legacy of our beautiful land.
