What key messages about your subject area would you like to share? Presentation is key! Take your time to produce quality rather than quantity.

I love teaching because sharing my knowledge with others is very rewarding. Every single day I can make a difference in someone's life which goes far beyond knowledge. We inspire, support, mentor and get the chance to discover and share some of the best parts of ourselves as human beings. What I like most about teaching is seeing the light bulb go off for a student! This can mean different things for different students. Seeing they can do something after thinking they cannot is always very rewarding!

My hobbies include music, film, walking the dog and mountain biking.

OAFreeston is a place of positivity where people are determined. I think learning by your mistakes and having a 'can do' attitude are really important!
