Hello! I believe that being an educator is
a profound privilege, and it is a joy to have the opportunity to be a part of
your learning journey this semester. My teaching experience spans Junior
Primary, Primary and Middle School as well as Higher Education, mostly within a
Christian education context. It is my desire to support, guide and challenge
you, for you to flourish and become the brilliant teacher you dream to be.

Tracey Price
As the Executive Dean, Faculties, I oversee the Education faulty and the Humanities & Social Science faculty. I am also Chair of the Scholarship Committee, which focuses on teaching & learning in the college. What I love most is my work as a Senior Lecturer in Pedagogy, in Spirituality and in Ethics subjects. I love teaching and consider it a privilege and great responsibility to teach teachers! I believe in the transforming power of enabling students to think critically and reflectively, and to accept personal and educational challenge; as T.S Eliot famously said, 'Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far they can go!
