Life Skills Tutoring Team
April Smith
Founder | Director | Teaching Aide
I’m April! I think it’s great that you stopped by. Let me tell you a bit about myself… I am a qualified teaching aide and tutor with special needs support.
Before I was a teaching aide, I was a visual merchandiser and trainer within some of the largest companies here in Australia. Training and teaching is who I am. I have also had the honour to be a godmother to three amazing young men who are on the Autism Spectrum. Being there from diagnosis through to where all of them are at today, has given me a grounding and hands on experience I cannot even begin to describe. I am so privileged to be a part of their journeys.
I have been involved heavily in the disability sector for the past six years. Here, I have been able to utilise many of my training skills and program a life skills and SLES based program for young people.
This is why I am loving being able to bring my services to you! I get to utilise my strengths, knowledge and experience to help the present and future generations grow into strong, independent and resilient adults.
