Students' gateway to Campus

Rebecca Harrison

Primary School Teacher

Year level (primary) or methods (secondary) you are teaching:

Grade 2

I have been teaching for:

4 years

My teaching highlight so far:

Watching a child learn to read fluently after coming to me not being able to read at all.

My most embarrassing moment in teaching:

Having an argument (discussion) with a student about which season it was, only to realise (once I started explaining to him how it all works) that I was wrong…oops!

An area in which you have needed assistance with:

How to deal with a group of difficult boys' behaviour.

Most rewarding area of teaching:

The laughs

#1 tip for current education students:

Keep the parents informed of any issues that may arise.
