Jooya Teaching Resources

I am an educator who has been teaching in a High School since 2001. In this time I have taught in several KLA's including Math, Visual Arts and Music. I am Head Teacher Creative and Performing Arts in a large, 7-12 High School in New South Wales, Australia. I have always believed in bringing out the best in students and my students have consistently achieved at the highest levels in the HSC.

I am a teacher who uses a variety of pedagogy, from Kagan Structures to traditional teaching methods to 21st Century teaching trends. I love my students to be involved in the lesson with lots of hands on activities.
