I wish that I could work with educators like Dax more often – he is the future of the profession. He is the type of educator that will continue to increase the value of his physical education courses for his students; always striving to improve students’ skills and their ability to transfer those skills to improve their lives.

Dax almost singlehandedly wrote an elementary physical education curriculum that we are now using. Dax shows an obvious interest and inclination toward developing and maintaining a quality curriculum for his department. He sets high goals for himself that benefit both his own development as a teacher and his students.

Committed, passionate and enthusiastic, Dax has run our Early Childhood PE program with pride and skill. His rapport with students and relationship with parents is fantastic. Dax has successfully integrated technology with assessment and it is a pleasure to see our youngest students using metacognitive strategies about their skills and learning and setting goals for themselves.

Dax effectively aligned the written, taught and assessed curriculum that encompassed knowledge, skills, concepts and the IB learner profile into his daily practice. He is able to build varied and accurate assessments and helps children set effective goals for future learning. He has a thorough understanding of the Primary Years Programme and seeks to enhance and highlight Transdisciplinary skills. Dax has a positive disposition, and is able to work successfully with colleagues, students and their families from a variety of cultures.
