#Elaine teamspirit series

Writing comes naturally to me and I decided to test the waters by sending my work to publishers … the rest is history.

One thing led to another and I became a radio presenter for a music request programme on Radio Pulpit. I started singing in the church and also made a gospel CD, Into Your Hands, which was on the charts at Southern Sound Radio in 1987. I started to work as a secretary and decided to take singing lessons with Eve Boswell for fun. My parents immigrated to SA when I was 20 years old. Wearing this new hat, she has written access-learning modules to help prospective engineering students to prepare for their courses as effectively as possible.īut where did everything start for Elaine? The school was started by her father, Eric Guest, and when he retired in 2006, she took over the family business. Her degrees were all awarded cum laude. Although she has a great interest in ancient history and art, she never used her degrees.Īpart from being a part-time author, she is the general manager of the School of Applied Non-Destructive Examination in Impala Park, Boksburg. She holds a BA in Art History and Ancient History from Unisa, an honours degree in Classics from the University of the Witwatersrand and a Master’s degree in Roman Art and Architecture from the University of Johannesburg. She only started her studies at the age of 40. These books have now been translated into all of the official languages and are widespread throughout the country’s schools.Ī fascinating fact is that Elaine never studied to become a scriptwriter or an author. The first book in the series, I See an Elephant, was launched in 2018.Įlaine was chosen as one of the main authors to revamp South African schools’ reading curriculum.
