Summary

Experienced in providing education support through distance education at Cairns School of the Air. Volunteered 2-3 days a week to assist with year 3 in 2024 for approximately 6 weeks. This opportunity proved fulfilling as it showcased the positive impact I could have on students' learning journeys. Currently nearing completion of a School Based Education Support Certificate III program to further enhance my skills and knowledge in this field. Excited for a new career change after dedicating most of my working life to the rural industry.
