Education Consultant delivering Leading Literacy
What I Do
Working together with educators to empower potential and deliver leading literacy
As a Leading Literary Specialist, I have provided professional learning services and education consultancy to schools for over 20 years. I am passionate about all things literacy and I believe in investing in the teachers that are teaching our students.
As an educator, you understand the value of building teacher capacity. I value the relationships I build with staff, students and the wider school community. I listen and we learn and grow together through communication and collaboration.
Together, we discuss your students, your teachers, your school and community narrative. I do not arrive with a prescribed program. I will support and extend the potential within your teachers – establishing shared visions, language and a comprehensive approach to the teaching and learning of literacy.
My supportive and comprehensive approach fully encompasses and adapts to suit the needs of your school.
I look forward to discussing your literacy values, goals and dreams as we create an individualised, tailored approach. Please send me an email or give me a call. Also, check out my Professional Learning options.
