Hi, my name is Michelle and I am in the second year of a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Arts at Griffith University on the Gold Coast. I am passionate about teaching and imparting knowledge and I strive to help others to achieve their goals and aspirations. I am a stronger believer in the power of a positive attitude and how it can be utilised to achieve goals that didn’t seem to be possible. Everything is achievable through hard work and dedication. I enjoy working with students both primary and secondary to help students improve in an array of subject areas including English, Extension English, History, Mathematics and Italian language. I am very passionate about sharing my techniques and insight into increasing skills in these areas to achieve a desired result. I enjoy working with students, creating a teacher student bond, which supports a professional yet comfortable environment where students feels as though their needs are being attended to and that they are in a space in which they feel safe and where they can ask questions without the fear of judgement. The future lies in the education of primary and secondary students today and it is empowering to be involved.
