It is my aim to provide students with a fun, relaxed and supportive learning environment through which confidence, assertiveness and listening skills can be developed. In the Speech and Drama classroom I encourage children to let go of their inhibitions and express themselves honestly, openly and confidently. For me, Speech & Drama is a passion and something that I enjoy immensely. This attitude permeates every lesson and is passed onto the children.

North Queensland Academy of Dramatic Arts, N-QADA was established in 2002 to create a speech, drama and theatre training school for students in Cairns from grade 3 to grade 12 and beyond. N-QADA is committed to teaching young people and adults through the sharing of ideas, laughter, respect, discipline in a supportive environment and that there is no limit to their own unique potential.
