Over dit e-boek
Rainbows Have Echoes is Julie Miller's autobiographical account of her successful career as an English teacher in England and New Zealand. While her career flourished her personal life has often been stormy, from an unhappy first marriage in the 1960s to, more recently, her heartbreak as she struggled to come to terms with her second husband's descent into dementia. Julie sees her life as a succession of rainbows and wasp stings, the good interweaving with the bad, great joy and times of hardship and sadness. As a teacher, Julie has been acclaimed for her work with traumatised children, easing them into educational pursuits and inspiring them with her own zest for life. The steep learning curves of her own life show that whatever life throws at you, however taxing it might prove to be, one can rise above the challenges and find a renewed delight in the world and its inhabitants.
Over de auteur
Julie Miller was born in Bradford, West Yorkshire on 1st January 1938. War was in the air and was an overriding factor in everyone’s lives. Ration books, air-raid shelters and fear were her earliest experiences. Her mother was too controlling to demonstrate affection and her father was too shy and lacking in confidence to make up the deficiency. After graduating from the University of Leicester Teacher Training College, Julie’s first teaching position was at Barkerend Road Primary School, Bradford. Subsequent positions have included four years in a New Zealand Boys’ Boarding School, Wansdyke Special School in Bath, and Bristol Metropolitan Academy where she remained until 2016 when she retired at the age of seventy-eight. Julie has been awarded ACP (Associate Member of College of Preceptors) Special Education, and the title of Fellow of the College of Preceptors for having made an outstanding contribution to education. She has also been acclaimed for her work in easing traumatised children into educational pursuits. The author has been married twice, has three children and five step-children.
