Kia ora, my name is Jane Moroney, and I am looking forward to my new role as the Learning Support Coordinator at Te Totara School. This newly created position by the Ministry of Education will enable me to use my skills, knowledge and passion to support students with learning needs. Over the past 23 years, I have had the privilege of teaching students from Year 0 - Year 8. During this time, I took a particular interest in researching different ways of learning and neo-science. In the past, I held the position of co-ordinating teacher for TESOL ( Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) at St Columba's School, which enabled me to complete a Graduate Diploma in TESOL. I am a passionate educator who enjoys identifying the learning needs of students and developing effective programmes to meet their individual needs, enabling them to reach their full potential and experience successes. It is a privilege to be part of the vibrant and dynamic Te Totara School team.
