Our Tutors
Our tutors love their work and what it means for community and individual health and wellness. From nutrition and skill acquisition to coaching and leadership, they all enjoy working in education and lifelong learning with a strong sense of 鈥渨orking all together鈥. NorthTec鈥檚 Sport and Recreation tutors hold qualifications in their fields at a Bachelor and Masters鈥 degree with some staff working on completing a Masters鈥 degree or PhD. With an emphasis on fun and fitness, the tutors feel the area of study has grown further into overall wellbeing rather than limiting learner activities to sport and exercise and they are passionate about sharing this with Northland.
