What makes you a good teacher?

After growing up in the same school my father taught at for 30 years, I was inspired by him to become a teacher myself. The main reason: other children looked up to him and spoke very highly of him as an educator. All through my teenage years I would meet people who would talk about him, adults he had taught as children, and to this day, they continue to praise him about how he has touched their lives and helped them become the successful people they are today. As a child, I wanted to be just like him.

I am a thoughtful and creative teacher when it comes to preparing innovative lessons. I want my students to walk into the next lesson with a sense of excitement as they anticipate something interesting and go home with a more unique and memorable experience.

Achievements:

Following in my fathers footsteps at being a teacher and professional musician.

Lifestyle:

When I was younger, all my free time was spent competing in active sports. I was lucky enough to have been selected to play football for my country from age 11 until the age of 16, but unfortunately wasn't signed by an English team at the height of my childhood prime.

I initially studied to be a Physical Education teacher and before settling as a classroom teacher, I worked three years as a PE teacher. Sports have always been a huge part of my life.

My creative side is being a professional singer songwriter and performer, also like my father and brothers. I have always needed adventure to stimulate my mind and as a result, have spent time living and visiting 70 countries around the world.

Dreams & Ambitions:

My future vision is to start my own after school learning facility. I vision the children doing extra-curricular activities such as sports and learning instruments, and while my employees help shape the children's future, I will be anticipating their parents on the same premises coming to eat in my restaurant while listening to great music.
