I am currently completing my Master of Teaching Degree, with only 1 semester left. My last full time position, prior to study, was as the Acting Director of Children's Services at Noarlunga Centre. I have worked extensively with children and teenagers for the last 20 years, both within and outside of the Education Department system. My strength is that I make learning fun and relevant while striving to install positive long term learning habits for my students. To do this I draw on my university training in Educational Psychology and my extensive life experience, while creating a warm and nurturing environment for the students in my care.
