About the store
Thanks for visiting my store. All the interactive whiteboard products have been created using Adobe Flash CS3 and are focused mainly on Primary School level.
After graduating in South Africa I taught Gr.3 and Gr.5 for a number of years before teaching General Science in Gr.6 and 7 and Biology from Gr.8 to Gr.12.
I was 'restless' working in the classroom and branched out into Environmental Education where I remained for 15 years taking groups of children into various Game and Nature Reserves.
Our family moved to Australia where I became a part time teacher for 12 years, doing relief and contract teaching from Gr.1 to Gr.12.
I became interested in Interactive Whiteboard applications after seeing the benefits in the classroom and decided to create my own software.
In recent years I have created a number of Interactive lessons in Geography and the Sciences, where my main interests lie.
