Mrs Skye Playsted

I am an educator with over 20 years of teaching experience. I have taught in Queensland primary and high schools, academic English programs and federally-funded adult migrant English teaching programs.

My research explores professional learning and classroom-based research,with a particular focus on pronunciation teaching and literacy development.

I teach undergraduate and postgraduate courses in in the areas of Arts, languages and primary literacy education. I also teach courses in professional learning and teacher development, TESOL and research methods.

As a researcher and teacher educator, I believe my strengths lie in my ability to draw on a broad range of teaching experiences across different sectors of education, and in my ability to network and collaborate effectively with academics nationally and internationally.
