Summary
Although I’ve been out of Primary school teaching for a while now, over the years I have worked in other professional areas & increased skills that can be adapted and beneficial across numerous work settings. I am reliable, patient, organised, a great communicator and pride myself on building positive relationships with clients, staff, students and the wider community. After completing my Teacher Reengagement Program, I have regained my confidence and knowledge as an educator and am very much looking forward to beginning CRT and becoming a part of ANZUK.
