Hi, my name is Toni and I joined the Monster Phonic team part time 2 years ago as a trainer for the South East. I have recently joined the Monster Phonics team full time as Schools Success Consultant. I am really excited to be part of Monster Phonics and looking forward to coming out to schools to train teachers, TA’s and support staff in the benefits and wonders of monster phonics. I trained as a primary school teacher and have taught for the past 20 years. My specialism is in Early years but I also have experience of teaching all year groups from year R to year 6. I was also a middle leader and nqt mentor in the village school that I worked in, my subject leads have included literacy co-ordinator, phonics lead and also reading and volunteer readers co-ordinator. I started using Monster Phonics in the school I was working in 4 years ago and it was amazing to see the children so excited about phonics, as well as the fantastic progress in our phonics results!!!
Outside of school, I am a mum, with 2 teenage boys, have a 9-year-old sprocker dog and a campervan that we love to go off on adventures in. I love being creative, whether this is through baking, sewing, drawing or gardening I love them all. I look forward to meeting you at a training session and supporting your school very soon.
