Experience

I am a recently retired high school English teacher with an extensive range of knowledge and expertise across all forms of literacy. I have taught at all levels of high school, from year Seven to Advanced English in Year 12. I have travelled and taught English in many places, such as China, England and Japan. I am also a published author and have a great passion for creative writing. My goal as a teacher is to share my love for all forms of written and spoken expression and give students all the skills in literacy that are necessary for a happy and successful life.
