I am an accomplished director and creative professional transitioning into full-time IBDP instruction. I offer a unique, industry-proven approach to the IBDP Theatre syllabus, emphasizing the synthesis of theory and professional production standards. • Practical Rigor in the Studio: My background as a National Broadcaster and Theatre Director enables me to guide students beyond surface-level performance. I specialize in teaching "Theatre in Context" and "Theatre Processes," ensuring students understand the industry standards of staging, dramaturgy, and technical production. • Inquiry-Driven Pedagogy: My training in Media Pedagogy aligns seamlessly with the IB’s commitment to inquiry-based learning. I focus on enveloping students’ ability to critically reflect on their creative choices—the essential heart of the IB Theatre Journal. • Mentorship & Internationalism: Having managed diverse, high-pressure teams on a global scale, I am naturally equipped to foster the IB Learner Profile attributes, specifically in creating inclusive, culturally responsive, and collaborative studio environments. • Bridging Theory to Practice: I am highly proficient in pedagogical frameworks and rapid curriculum development. I am eager to apply my professional experience to help students master the Collaborative Project, Solo Theatre Piece, and Director’s Notebook, ensuring both high creative output and academic rigor.
