Summary

Passionate teacher of English who lives through the imagination.

Excellent communication skills and a devout belief in social justice drives my working life. I am tenacious, collaborative and obsessive in my pursuit of answers and solutions. I find humour in most situations and am able to forge successful and productive relationships with students and colleagues. Literacy is a right not a privilege.
