A little bit about me

I am currently an undergraduate studying a Bachelor of Primary Education.

I have two children, a daughter who is currently in Year 5 and a son who is in Year 3. I have wanted to teach from a very young age but after graduating high school in 2004, my life and tertiary studies took me down a different path. It wasn't until my daughter started school and I watched her struggle that my enthusiasm for teaching reignited. Having a child with learning difficulties has made me want to teach children even more and has allowed me to learn and look at teaching in a different light.

I have a passion for teaching the next generation of children. I want the best for every child when it comes to education and I believe every child, no matter their circumstances, needs a strong teacher to nurture, guide, and support their learning experiences and needs. My goal is to become the teacher all students want to have, not just because I make learning fun, but because I give all children the chance to have a voice and help me create the best learning environment for the class. I want the children I teach to know that I will go above and beyond to help them learn and grow.
