I have been teaching for over 13 years now, and yet I have never started a blog about what I actually do before. Probably because I figured this was how everyone works....
But more recently I have figured out that I am an oddity. And perhaps in a good way.
I have taught pretty much everything.... I started with English, History and Mathematics... then added Science and Integrated Curriculum to the list... then Health.... then I moved into teaching Drama. Along the way I have taught Computing, Media Studies, Classical Studies, Music, Debating, Theatre-sports and Improvisation, Language programmes, Gifted and Talented extension classes and Leadership Training. You name it, I taught it....
Why?
Ha! Beyond me if you ask. I think it is because I have trained in... well.... pretty much everything from Theoretical Astrophysics to the Greek Language.
Currently I teach Drama and History, and I love it. Being able to mix hands on subjects with deep knowledge suits me nicely. And I can't see myself changing any time soon.
I am a creative soul. I love to write, knit, sew, quilt, write some more, dream, paint, craft, photograph, travel, explore and then do a little writing. When I grow up I will be a writer. ;)
But for now, I think I should share a little more of what I do and why I think it is important. You can pretty much guarantee that it is different.
