Profile

I’m a born and bred Wellingtonian, and have previously been a student at Victoria. I have experience in teaching English language for Academic Purposes and study skills to international, migrant and refugee background students, most recently on our English for Academic Purposes programme.

I enjoy working with all students, and have a special focus on students with disabilities, international students and students from refugee backgrounds. My interests include cross-cultural communication, and assisting all students to acquire the academic skills they need to succeed at university.
