Design Teacher
Kia ora!
I believe strongly in education as a tool for empowerment and in its ability to increase self-motivation and self-belief. I have come to education from a graphic design background and I am very passionate about creativity and its importance in connected, holistic and joyful learning. I strive to continue to learn and grow alongside the students and the wider school community. I came into teaching because I believe in, and am passionate about helping to shape a better future for the youth of our communities and country.
