For the thirty-fifth episode of the Toddcast the Teacher Podcast I had the wonderful opportunity of interviewing Caitie McWaters who I actually went to school with and we also coached volleyball together.
Caitie has been teaching for 12 years in various roles and schools such as residential boarding schools and teaching VCE subjects Outdoor Education, Physical Education and Health and Human Development. Caitie has a wonderful passion for teaching and seeing her students achieve their best results possible.
Caitie discusses the following:
- Her teaching journey, why she became a teacher and her teacher role model.
- Her experiences in residential boarding school as a teacher.
- Positives and challenges for staff and students in residential boarding schools.
- Advice for teachers moving schools
- Teaching VCE and the pressures for results.
- Advice for teachers about how to get the best VCE results possible.
- Balancing Mum life and being a teacher.
- Todd’s Stock Exchange (Game).
