Dedicated to shaping young minds and fostering a positive learning environment, I am a highly qualified Secondary/High School Teacher with a Bachelor of Secondary Teaching (Humanities) with Honours and a Graduate Certificate in Geography Teaching. Holding permanent status, I am approved to teach a broad spectrum of subjects, including History (7-12), Elective History (9-10), Modern History (11-12), Geography (7-12), Senior Geography (11-12), English (7-12), and I am enthusiastic about teaching Studies of Religion (11-12).My dedication to education extends beyond the classroom, embodying a passion for inclusive education, resource development, classroom management, and adherence to curriculum standards. With a focus on timely and constructive feedback, I engage students through dynamic teaching methods. I excel in parent communication and have a proven track record in organizing whole school events, such as Presentation Day and ANZAC ceremonies. Additionally, I contribute to the school's literacy initiatives and bring excellent communication skills to the table.Technologically adept, I am proficient in Microsoft Office, Google Suite, Turnitin, and school administrative programs like Sentral and School Bytes. As a Year Advisor, I actively support students' welfare by providing guidance and general support, addressing issues related to studies or external factors impacting education. My role involves collaborating with various stakeholders, including the Principal, Deputy Principal, Head Teacher Welfare, Head Teacher Support, Faculty Head Teachers, and the School Counsellor, to provide tailored support for individual students, including those with special needs. I serve as a key point of contact for parent concerns/questions, organise whole-grade excursions, camps, and programs, and facilitate lunchtime social programs.In addition to my educational role, my experience in casual employment at 5 Star Swim Schools as a Receptionist and Shift Supervisor has honed my multitasking abilities. I adeptly manage student bookings, recognize and assess student achievements, support swim instructors in the pool, and handle student complaints. Eager to contribute my skills and passion for education, I am open to networking with like-minded professionals and exploring opportunities for collaboration and growth.
