I have been involved in education for 25 years and can honestly say, I love my job. I am a British citizen having moved from South Africa to the United Kingdom where I am a Senior Geography teacher (BA degree and PGCSE diploma with QTS) who specializes in teaching Geography to Key stages 3, 4 and 5. My hobbies include Rugby, golf and living life to the fullest enjoying all outdoor activities from surf to mountains.
Tutoring allows me to mold young minds and set them up for their future. This is such a reward and a privilege, highlighted for me when I bump into old students.
I have taught various curriculum's (7 years’ experience as Head of CAIE Geography, 5 years as second in charge Edexcel Geography, 3 years with AQA).
I have 25 years teaching and tutoring experience and I am a highly qualified Rugby coach (World of Rugby level 2 qualified with certificate).
I worked at the Campion school for 5.5 years experience of teaching Edexcel Geography (up to A level). I also gained experience marking Edexcel A level examinations.
• Key stages 3, 4 and 5
• 2IC duties within the department and a Form tutor to year 10.
• Mentor to the year 12 group with their EPQ.
• Key member of the Differentiation and T and L teacher groups.
• Year 7, 11 and 13 trip organizer.
I currently teach using the AQA syllabus at another Outstanding school in Havering.
I really enjoy assisting students attain their goals and my 24 years experience has given me the tools to assist students to reach their goals. My tutoring approach is as follows:
step 1 - meet and greet
step 2 - gauge target grade
step 3 - fill in gaps to education to further confidence
step 4 - work on papers to attain target and hopefully exceed target grade with constant feedback from myself.
