The Strength Space Magazine By Ali Palmer

I
began my career
as a Physical
Education Teacher
with high-school
students. I taught a wide range
of sports as well as a health
education curriculum. I was
responsible for developing
and reviewing new and
existing programs across year
levels, including after-school
activities, competitive sports
and residential trips. Some
of my favourite memories
include taking disadvantaged
students on a surfing holiday.
I know it was life-changing
for some of them. This phase
of my career offered an
excellent opportunity to hone
my strengths in planning and
organising, as well as empathy,
patience and adaptability.
