About the store
educator.tools At the moment I work as a special needs education assistant in an education support school so my newer resources will be orientated towards education support settings and early education. In my teens, I worked as a math tutor for primary-aged students to early high school-aged students. I also worked for two years in a maritime education setting, programming instrumentation and running virtual simulation training directly after completing my Bachelors. I am also completing my degree in Teaching, in which I have gained limited practical experience in teaching. I am well aware that not every resource is a one-size-fits-all but I hope to have enough resources that there is something to support every student available. I am also using this website as an info-dump of teacher resources for my own personal use.

Teaching style

Focus of inclusivity and communication.

My own education history

My first completed degree was a Bachelor in Game Development, majoring in Game Design but before that I had partial completion of a Bachelor of Psychology and a Bachelor of Speech Pathology. I also have a partial completion of a Bachelor of Law(s). I am currently studying my Masters in Teaching, majoring in Primary Education as well as completing my Certificate IV in Education Support.

Additional biographical information

From my primary website educator.tools Hi! My pseudonym is "Mr Jace" and I create/curate websites for use in the education industry. I'm a late-20s-age male educator based in Western Australia so that is why some of the links/resources are specific to WA in case you were wondering! I have ADHD which was diagnosed as an adult, so I created this website to help other educators find ways of being inclusive even when there isn't an identifiable student in need. These kinds of resources are ones I use now and that would've helped me immensely in school. The website has also expanded to just collate a bunch of useful websites in general for educators to use, so I hope you find something you're looking for!
