"Dianne understands the contribution played by the school Librarian. As a workshop facilitator, she is warm, dynamic and efficient. She is an active listener, good communicator and open minded teacher.
She inspired our teams to find a creative and collaborative framework, encouraging people to achieve new learning challenges".

Not only did Dianne display superb subject knowledge, the manner in which she delivered the programme reflected consideration and empathy for all participants. She ensured that the workshop was modified to accommodate the needs of each individual and scaffolded new concepts with real life experiences. Our understanding of assessment is richer because of Dianne.
