My Profile

Professional Background

I have taught in vocational education for most of my training days. I am retraining for the high school sector in IT. I just completed my first 4-week practicuum at a local high school and they didn't manage to break me! I am highly surprised at the lack of skills in this high school and from the stories I hear, this is not uncommon. I hope that learning new technologies might add a spark to the classes and encourage literacy skills and mostly make the classes a place where the students want to be.

I love using the computer, am totally a software kinda gal, and love learning new ways to intrigue people.

Education

Completed:

  • Bachelor of IT
  • Certificate IV in Training and Assessment
  • TESOL Preparation


Working on:

  • Gradute Diploma of Education
  • Graduate Diploma of Vocational Education and Training
  • Certificate II in Auslan (Australian Sign Language)
  • Certificate IV in Business Administration

My Interests

Professional

I would love to train in the industrial arts sector of high school, as I had the experience to join in a few woodworking classes inbetween my computer classes - I did woodwork up until year 10 at school and loved being back there during this prac - and made some interesting projects!
I love learning new things and love training people and encouraging them to learn new things as well.

Personal

I am learning Auslan, which is Australian sign language for the Deaf and enjoy this very much.

You would sign my name, Kylie, like this:

RTENOTITLE

I like craft and dancing and basically anything where I am creating something. I have a wonderfully supportive husband that goes along with most of my crazy ideas and loves me anyway.
