ARTIE TUTOR: FROM STUDENT TO TEACHER

Kelsey Hawthorn started in the Marsden State High School Deadly Unit in 2017 as an ARTIE Academy Tutor as part of her University prac commitment.

Kelsey was studying to be a teacher and did her hours as a tutor at Marsden State High School encouraging and assisting the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in Years 7, 8 and 9 with their literacy and numeracy skills.

Through the first year teacher process, Kelsey was successful in obtaining a position at Marsden State High School in the Food and Design Department as a cooking and sewing teacher.

Through hard work, commitment and dedication to student outcomes the ARTIE Academy Staff were excited and proud to hear that Kelsey has now been made a permanent staff member.

To date three ARTIE Academy Tutors have gone on to receive teaching positions at Marsden State High School.
