Alex Grimwade has had a number of lives. Once a spin doctor in the NSW Parliament, once a litigation lawyer, still a mother of four hectic but stimulating offspring, partner to a conservative thinker. Over the last decade, following the completion of a MTeach at the University of Melbourne, she has taught English and English language at  Melbourne High School. In fact, she  reintroduced English Language after a long period of hibernation, where it has been taken up with alacrity by numbers of aspiring students. Alex loves language and literature, and is a mad keen theatre goer. Travel is another passion. With a basic knowledge of  Latin, German and Italian she is much better at English, and relishes the historical linguistic focus of EL.
