TEACHING EXPERIENCE

20 years teaching across Kindergarten to year 10 as both a classroom teacher and specialist teacher in the areas of computing, science and technology.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I love to be both hands on with interactive learning and spontaneous to open students eyes and promote excitement within the classroom. Learning about volcanos? Get outside into the sandpit and build some. What about fractions? Introduce some cooking! Students learn best when presented with varied opportunities - embrace it and they'll still be talking about the time they spent in your class years later!
