  • More About Bec
    Bec is a passionate primary school teacher of 10 years. She’s covered quite a bit of ground in this time; working in Catholic, Public & Independent school settings in Canberra and now in Melbourne. She’s taught in a International Baccalaureate PYP setting for the majority of her career and this aligns strongly with Bec’s philosophy of educating young people. When she began teaching at Radford College six years ago she came across ‘Positive Education’ based on the Geelong Grammar Institute of Positive Education model, funnily enough where she teaches now! This led Bec to her post graduate study at The University of Melbourne where she completed a Masters in Positive Psychology & a Professional Certificate in Positive Education. This model put a name to everything she was passionate about when educating young people and found it acknowledges that learning isn’t just about the academics but developing one’s whole self. Bec absolutely loves teaching and believes it’s one of the most rewarding, challenging and meaningful jobs you can do!
