Brief Bio
I am employed as a full-time lecturer in the School of Education at the IIE MSA. I primarily lecture within the foundation phase band and have a keen interest in languages, movement, mathematics, art education, and in particular learner support in the early years.
I was formerly a Foundation Phase Teacher in the public basic education sector. I bring a wealth of knowledge to the higher education sector to equip students in their initial teacher training. I have obtained my Master’s degree in Learner Support and I am a registered Ph.D. student specializing in special needs education.
