I’ve been fortunate to mix my love of travel, gardening, cooking, music, and experiencing life and culture in other parts of the world with being an educator and school leader. I’m qualified and experienced as an Intitial Teacher Trainer (ITT) in the UK, as well as experienced and certified to train school leaders for their administrator’s certification. (Prior to working in education, I drove diesel lorries in the UK, and also worked as an overhead-line electrical engineer on the rails.) My passions are centred within the Humanities, Special Education Needs, and assisting our students to appreciate the interconnected, globalised life that we humans have with our natural world: past, present, and the future. I’m versed with different curriculums from countries in different parts of the world, as well as language testing such as IELTS and TOEIC. I look forward to welcoming your students not only to my classes, but into the classes of the teachers in other parts of NYA.
