professional experience
During my teaching years in South Africa, I was a full-time teacher, Subject Head and Level Head. I delivered daily lessons to Afrikaans, English, Xhosa and isiZulu speaking students. Various ages and abilities made for a diverse experience. Utilizing specialist inclusive teaching techniques; teaching a variety of subjects. So many life lessons are learned while guiding students in preparation for their life's journey. It has been a wonderful and rewarding experience.
Therefore, I can't wait to see what we can create together in the future.
