I am interested in student motivation. 

Keeping in mind my belief that:

• Teaching and learning is the central theme for all schools and educational institutions.
• Important co-curricular activities are stimulated and enhanced by sound and successful teaching and learning outcomes.

Outcomes are enhanced by encouraging persistence and high expectation.

To enhance student motivation:

1. Do not cover too much.
2. Help students to connect their learning so that it is relevant to their lives.
3. Help students to recognise and celebrate their progress.

Careful!     The quality of learning can be ruined by the quantity required from our ever broadening curriculum.
