Upper Primary - Secondary English Teacher
English-ATAR Intervention & Extension Teacher-Tutor for Years 5-12
English ATAR Support
Literacy Intervention
Wtih over 20 years' experience as a Secondary Teacher, my main area of expertise is in upper school, having been a Senior Teacher of English and English as an Additional Language or Dialect (ATAR and General courses) for the past decade.
I am a culturally sensitive educator who prioritises the safety and well-being of every learner - neurodivergent and neurotypical alike. I adopt an evidence-based approach and have engaged in a wide range of professional development to holistically support learners' diverse needs.
I have developed an extensive repertoire of instructional strategies, to meet the social, emotional and academic needs of students. I am also highly skilled around reflective practice and effective feedback delivery, embedding this into every session.
As a Professional Teacher-Tutor, I also recently completed additional training to become a Coach Practitioner. The skills and strategies acquired through this training compliment my teaching practice, enhancing the overall experience for learners, by developing their problem solving, goal setting, executive functioning and study skills.
As part of my services, I can assist your child to develop their skills in the following areas:
- reading/viewing comprehension & critical literacy
- language features & constructing a range of texts
- decoding & understanding questions
- grammar & syntax
- brainstorming & planning
- essay writing
- creative & interpretive writing
- synthesising information
- understanding task sheets & marking rubrics
- academic skills (e.g. research, referencing)
- general study skills
- goal setting
