Jannie van Hees

Dr Jannie van Hees is a consultant and researcher at The University of Auckland. She has years of experience as a classroom teacher at primary, secondary, and tertiary levels in New Zealand and internationally. She has designed numerous national educational professional development and training programmes centred around effective pedagogy and language learning.

As a bilingual child (Dutch and English) growing up in New Zealand, she regards languages within families as taonga to be ‘kept alive’ in the present and gifted on, one generation to the next. For Jannie, language is a prime enabling tool that empowers people to stand tall, say their meaning, be heard, and be enabled to devise enriching journeys of self.
