With experience working in Australia, the United Kingdom, Guernsey and Bermuda I have had the opportunity to appreciate the differences in curriculum, delivery and cultural setting in a broad range of educational environments. My experiences have also allowed me to recognize the unifying factors across these settings - the stakeholders in education all seek; * opportunity * respect * clear feedback * high standards in delivery and results * a safe and nurturing environmentIt is against these needs that I have measured my skill as an educator and how I have identified goals for my further development. Outside of my personal satisfaction that I demonstrate a talent for engendering these facets in my teaching, my ability to attend to these needs is recognized and validated by the organisations I have worked for. Having worked predominantly in secondary Mathematics, Science and year group leadership, with a stint as a literacy teacher, I value cross curricular learning experiences highly. As such I provide my students with opportunities to learn new skills or concepts in a contextually familiar setting. I encourage them to bring their experiences and skills to the table to further the educational experience. In short, I am dedicated and enthusiastic educator whose skills and abilities are such that I now have a proven track record of improving outcomes for all students. I foster strong relationships with all participants in the education process and ensure I am a valuable asset to the organisation in which I work.
