Profile
I am an enthusiastic and experienced Physical Education teacher and have worked internationally
for the majority of my career. I originally trained as a Secondary teacher, but switched to
Primary in 2002. I am an energetic, conscientious, hardworking and loyal colleague. I have high
expectations for myself, and children in my classes and have been given good or outstanding in all
my lesson observations. I am able to work as part of a team, but also willing to accept
responsibility. I am always open to new ideas and suggestions. I love teaching, and value the good
relationships I can build with students and their families in order to help children fulfil their
potential. I am flexible and have taught a wide variety of teams from athletics to rounders,
although swimming has become an area of expertise and interest.
