My current role as a Grade 5 Generalist Teacher at Preston Primary School has allowed me to develop strategies to assist at risk students and further progress student achievement and development. As a fully qualified teacher I possess a strong knowledge of the Victorian Curriculum and teach a range of subjects.

My love of teaching can be seen in my actions and professional experience to date. I possess a genuine interest in the development of students I teach, and will do everything possible to ignite a desire in students to learn and achieve. Throughout my teaching I have created lessons and units of work which catered for a diverse range of learners.

Availability: 4-6 hours per week, available Saturday.
I have my own car and able to visit students at home.

Willing to travel: 15 miles
