''TEACHING DAYS''

About the Book

I can do a similar version for "Teaching Days" which offers various insights into the 20 plus years I spent working for TAFE NSW, an organisation I joined in 1988. I was appointed Head Teacher of Professional Photography in1995 and held that position until I retired in August 2008. "Teaching Days" describes some of the staff and students that I encountered as well as some of the wins and losses that are inevitable in a large beaurocracy.

About the Author

I was born in Invercargill on the southern tip of the South Island of New Zealand on the 25th of April 1946, thus becoming one of the leading edge baby boomers. Ending up at Otago University in Dunedin, I completed a Masters degree in geology, writing both an Honours and a Masters thesis. I then ended up writing and editing a huge number of technical reports for the various Mines Departments in the SW Pacific we were required to report to, not to mention those that were destined for the board in New York. As well as working in Australia and New Zealand, I spent time working in Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Fiji and the Philippines. This book describes some of those experiences.
