Summary
I am an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher with a love for educating today’s youth. My ability to plan and deliver engaging and dynamic lessons comes from my knowledge and understanding of the curriculum, along with my deep passion for health and wellbeing. However, I recognise myself as a lifetime learner, constantly looking for opportunities to improve on and enhance my teaching practice through collegial support and personal development courses. Furthermore, I offer excellent verbal and written communication skills, high organisational and planning skills and the ability to provide a safe and supportive learning environment for all students.
