Tanya A. Burke

34 years teaching design and technology in Half-Way Tree

🇯🇲 Half-Way Tree, Saint Andrew, Jamaica
Maple Ridge Primary School
2016 to 2025
English

For nine years I was the design and technology teacher at Maple Ridge Primary School. I taught teenagers and a few brave older students who wanted extra help. I coached the school's volleyball team for a few seasons. We lost more than we won, and I'd do it all again.

What gifts mean to Tanya: If you do send something, I'll put it toward a small scholarship for a student who needs it.
