Fulvia Galigani
Fulvia Galigani is an experienced Italian teacher and a passionate Languages advocate. Over the past twenty years, she has been working in several Victorian schools in both regional and metropolitan areas. Her teaching career extends to Italy, where she has taught Languages and Literatures and Language Acquisition in an IB International School. An expert in IB (International Baccalaureat) program, Fulvia believes in the role inquiry plays in guiding student learning. She has held the position of KLA Leader for Languages in different schools and has taught students of all ages, from Prep to adult. Fulvia holds a Master’s degree in English and Comparative Literatures, while being at the same time specialised in Linguistics and Language Acquisition.
Inspired by her European background, Fulvia has always been interested in making Languages more relevant for Australian students and at the front of the school curriculum. She believes that having a good knowledge of languages is crucial to successfully operate in the 21st century, as this develops so many other skills, such as better problem solving, diplomacy, citizenship. Fulvia’s wealth of experience and passion are tangible in her presentations and workshops: she likes to share practices that work, discuss ideas and approaches that teachers can take into their class immediately to engage more students in the learning and, ultimately, empower teachers to be advocates for languages.

“Why Is This Young Person So Hard to Teach? Understanding the Diagnoses PDA, IED, ODD, CD and ASPD’ – Aphra Millis”
Aphra was great, so honest, down to earth and personable. I really loved the fact that she could talk to the topic both on a personal and professional level. She certainly raised awareness of a number of conditions and diagnoses that we are starting to see more of. Highly recommend her.

This session was one of the most empowering workshops that I have ever done and I leave the session with extremely useful and relevant tools to use going forward. Thanks so much to Sally for leading us in the session so positively.

Unleashing Brilliant Brains: Boys, ADHD & the Power of Connection – Tony Vallance
This has been the best PD I have ever attended. As an ADHD’er myself (undiagnosed), the mother of an ADHD’er 21 yr old with some serious addictions and now teaching for the past few years in the VM space with ADHD students. I have over 25 years of policing and only recently a teacher and feel so privileged that I get to have an impact on these young people. So grateful Tony for the work you do.

The best P.D. I have attended in living memory!” I loved every minute of this engaging, interesting and informative PD. And I have been teaching for 40+ years!
Tina Hobbs – Administration Workshops
I have come away from this session feeling very inspired and so much more positive. I now have many new ideas/techniques/strategies regarding how I can better manage a workload that often feels overwhelming. Some of these can be implemented immediately while others are more long-term plans. Thank you for making this workshop so practical. I just wish that all school admin staff had the opportunity to undertake this course.
