About the store
I have been working in education for the last 18 years.
I first started teaching English as a second language in a Czech gymnazium (Gr 6-9) in Prague. I had such a great time that I went back to Australia to do a Primary (Elementary) teaching degree. After that, I taught at International Schools in Korea and Ukraine before returning to teach in Australia.
Upon my return to Australia, I taught as a kitchen and garden specialist within the Stephanie Alexander program and also as a casual replacement teacher.
After the birth of my second child, I started my own family day care and also got my postgrad in Early Childhood Education & Care.
After working in FDC for a number of years, I got a job working as an Early Years STEM Program Developer at a science museum.
I currently work in early year governance for the state government.

Teaching style
I believe in physical, hands-on learning, and that is why I have called this store, 'Tangible Learning'. The learning is both hands-on, and real.
