PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
5/6 PRE-SERVICE TEACHER
LUCINDA BLOM
Classroom Teacher
MY BACKGROUND
I was born in Darwin NT but
raised Alice Springs. It was
there that I experienced an
education rich in culture and
diversity that has had a
profound influence on my
teaching philosophy. Living in
outback Australia instilled a
sense of curious exploration
in me where I now constantly
strive to find new ideas,
perspectives and angles to
solve any situation I find
myself in.
I aim to inspire success and
ignite curiosity in all my
students throughout their
learning journey; as well as
my own.
