I have a very flexible approach to teaching and am able to adapt to each student's unique learning style. I am familiar with ‘constructivist’ learning and have successfully applied this approach in the classroom with various strategies designed to assist all students in maximizing their learning. I encourage students to actively participate in their own learning, rather than being passive recipients.
Students who are disengaged can become engaged when they are in a positive, supportive environment, where their own individual learning style is catered for. Inquiry based learning as opposed to students as passive ‘sponges’, also creates higher levels of student engagement. I am an experienced teacher of grades 7-12, having taught in my native Australia for over 17 years.
I have specialized in teaching senior English and English as a Second Language. I have been a faculty head as wel

I am devoted to the Socratic method. Teaching with leading questions allows my students to formulate within their own minds the connections necessary to grasp the concepts we are addressing. There is no greater joy than seeing the light in a student's eyes when he or she makes that crucial crossover from external facts to internal understanding.
Also, I am firmly convinced that education is a social process in which both teacher and student participate, and from which both learn. Working with a motivated student is invigorating to me. I have been involved in teaching of some sort since young adulthood. My formal experience was the 17 years I spent teaching Philosophy at Gonzaga University and North Idaho College. Prior to that, I spent a number of years teaching guitar. I am a published author and Internet radio podcaster, teaching on various topics in philosophy and spirituality.

I have worked in the Coeur d'Alene school district for 10 years as a paraprofessional. During that time I went back to school to get my teaching certificate. I have 7 years of experience with Title I children. I have been trained in the LIPS program and LETRS program.I have been trained in the Visualizing and Verbalizing technique and have seen great success with the children I teach. I am currently a Kindergarten teacher. I teach with a high expectation for student success. I understand that children learn in different ways so I use a variety of teaching techniques to reach the kinesthetic, lingual and visual learner. My goal as a teacher is to help each child succeed. I am patient and have a calm demeanor. I individualize my instruction to discover the hidden treasure of each child. I use the phrase “there it is” when children achieve the target we are learning. I believe in celebratin
