Q&A with Angus Moffatt, English, History and AIF Teacher — Concordia Campus

1. Where were you before this and what persuaded you to join Concordia?

Before coming to Concordia, I was a Behaviour Intervention Support Officer at Adelaide Botanic High School. I joined because I was really looking for somewhere that was a community that extended beyond just the classroom - and so far the Concordia community has been just that!

2. Three words to describe you.

Relaxed, open, curious.

3. What is your motivation or inspiration in your role?

The most important thing for me in any class is for students to be able to develop the confidence and courage to be kind in a world that can sometimes make that hard.

4. If you had a superpower, what would it be?

Not quite a superpower, but I often find myself thinking of the scene in The Matrix when Neo just downloads information straight into his brain - how easy would that be?

5. Who would you invite to a dinner party of six guests and why? Alternatively, tell us something you might like to share that we could not possibly know?

The Inklings, J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis's old writing group. I feel like they would either have some very entertaining or insightful commentary, or just rip into each other a bit. Either way, it would be an entertaining evening!
