My Story
I am the founder of Giant Strides and the primary tutor. With 17 years of full-time primary years teaching and leadership experience, I have a passion for life-long learning. I have taught in leading independent and government schools; both in Sydney and in Abu Dhabi. I have taught the PYP curriculum for the past 10 years and I am a strong believer in the relevance it brings to learning, combined with providing a strong rigor in the core subjects. I am well acquainted with the NSW syllabus outcomes and I am approved to teach in NSW.
I look forward to speaking with you soon, to discuss how I can support your child in taking giant strides!
