After graduating from her Agriculture and Environmental Management degree in 1993, Christine spent six months in Africa and volunteered with the Kenya Wildlife Service.  It was here that she first saw the importance of learning about different perspectives and she used her knowledge about learning to help rural communities.  When she left, the staff she was working with asked her - 'Will you come back and teach us about learning?'

Christine began her career in 1996 working with farmers across the state of Qld, Australia, and across three states in India.  When she used her techniques, these farmers would say to her - 'Why didn't we learn about learning sooner?'

From 2000-2005, as an innovation and development specialist, she worked with government staff in their 30s and 40s, who, after also experiencing Christine's learning techniques, said - 'Why didn't we learn this in our degrees at Uni?'

As a Senior Lecturer from 2004-2011, Dr King helped university students understand and improve their learning.  After their grades improved across all of their courses they said - 'Why didn't we learn this stuff in high school? Life would have been so much easier!'

So - in 2014, Christine developed her 'Learn to Learn ... and get better grades' program for senior high school students and has been running it since to help students improve their grades, reduce their stress, and spend less time studying.  

In 2017, Dr King decided to take her programs and strategies online to help even more people optimise their learning. 

 

By the age of 30, Christine's skills in facilitating learning were recognised across the globe.
