Educator/Teacher, Entrepreneur, Global soul, World traveler

I've been teaching for three years now and have totally found what I love doing. It's not that I always wanted to be a teacher, it just kind of fell in my lap. To be totally honest, I had friends attending teachers college at Griffith University on the Gold Coast, Australia. My "mates" had been bragging about the sun, surf and school and I was excited to check "the Goldie" out for myself. Before I knew it, I was on an Air Canada flight from Toronto to the Gold Coast. I attended teachers college and walked out with a Masters of Teaching degree. I spent a few more years on "the Goldie", and worked on a horse farm in a small little town called Biddaddaba, Queensland, Australia. I believe that travelling is the key to a happy and fulfilling life and I want to see how I can combine both of my passions (teaching and travelling) into a single occupation. I believe the world can be a better place and I want to give my best well I'm here!

Education, Entrepreneurship, Traveling and Learning.

Education for the 21st century. The school system is about to go through a massive transformation. For the first time in history the knowledge of students with relation to technology is surpassing those of their mentor teachers. We as teachers are beginning to act as facilitators. I want to provide a platform for students to study what they want, when they want and what they are passionate about. Imagine attending an online school where you as a student had the opportunity to learn your interests. I hope one day to create the best online school in the world filled with experts that will help our globe prosper.
