Summary

I am a very creative person who enjoys working with other people. I am goal-oriented and function very well in a team environment. I enjoy challenges and take the lead in situations to achieve the best possible outcome.

I realized at a young age that I have a passion for teaching and influencing others, so I also enjoy making a difference in the lives of my students. In 2002, I completed my Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) at the University of Pretoria. My specialization is Hospitality Studies, and I am proud to teach my students to the best of their abilities. In 2012, I earned my B Ed Honours degree in school management through UNISA, so I can enrich my skills as a member of the school management team.

Currently, I am the deputy principal of my school, where my main role is academic achievement as well as sports organization.

I am dedicated to my school, as well as the future of all the students I teach. I strive to reach new heights with my school and academically to be known as the best in the district.

Creative Educational Leader with a passion for teaching and influencing students. Drives academic performance and organises sports initiatives to foster student engagement and achievement. Committed to achieving excellence and enhancing the future of learners.
