Teaching style
My style is a mixture of:
1) Development of resources that appeal to all learning styles - visual, auditory and kinaesthetic.
2) Discovery and independent learning orientated
3) Fun to fan the flames of curiosity and enjoyment
4) Provision of regular and varied assessment opportunities to consolidate and review learning.

Additional biographical information
I love snow sports and if I could check in at any destination at any time at the switch of a button I would choose to be on the top of a ski slope with either my skis or snowboard strapped to my feet!
I was a Camp America Camp Counsellor at Camp Skimino near Virgina Beach whilst at University and had an amazing 3 months working with youngsters on camp followed by touring the USA - mainly on the classic Greyhound buses.
I love travel and spent a month with a group of Sixth form students from a previous school touring Mexico alongside some project style work – building clay ovens and kitchens out of corrugated iron!
I have a passion for what I do and run on adrenaline.
