I "on-the-road" schooled our kids while we travelled and loved it so much that I've continued with the home-schooling journey.

Experience
I'm an Aussie born Primary School Teacher- who has taught pretty much the whole spectrum of the primary grades over the years. My family has recently returned home after spending two years living in a camper trailer (basically a glorified tent on wheels!) while travelling and working our way around our amazing home continent. I "on-the-road" schooled our kids while we travelled and loved it so much that I've continued with the home-schooling journey.
Teaching style
I always aim to create an environment where children are engaged in and delighted about their learning. Like many teachers I'm constantly creating, refining, adapting and learning how to do my job the best that I can.
Awards & shining teacher moments
No formal accolades- just the joy of receiving positive feedback from the lovely parents of the children I've taught. The honour of working alongside wonderful teachers and support staff and the privilege of seeing children grow and learn.
My own education history
Bachelor of Arts in Education from Edith Cowan University, Western Australia (graduated 1996) plus continued professional development.
Additional biographical information
Our family are mad keen campers and 4WDers. We get out an explore our beautiful country whenever we can. I'm also partial to anything art and crafty & DIY and I love visiting libraries!
