Summary

I began full time teaching in 1995 at Indooroopilly SHS and moved to Morayfield SHS to be a senior English and Geography teacher for a period of 3 years. I was then transferred to Corinda SHS in 1998 and was a senior English teacher until 2019 ,and so I spent 22 years at Corinda SHS which I absolutely loved. I retired at age 60.

After retirement I worked exclusively at Centenary SHS as temporary contract and casual Supply Teacher for 4 years up to the present date. I am up to date with the Mandatory Modules.
