Bio
I am sensitive, caring and deeply concerned with the personal growth of myself and others. I enjoy spending time exploring my ideas, values and creativity while encouraging others to do the same.
I spent a year creating and running Grade 12 English workshops on a volunteer basis at the school I had worked at previously, to ensure that my past learners passed (which they did). I spent the last five years not just teaching but also mentoring and counselling many of the learners, through various difficulties.

My Proudest
Achievements
• I passed my yellow grading in Kung Fu, which involved a three hour physical, and many months of gruelling training.
• One of my Grade 12 learners named me as the teacher who had the largest influence on his life, in that I helped him to believe in himself and I opened his mind.
