About Me

Qualified teacher with PGCE and QTS, holding postgraduate degrees in Global Affairs and Computer Science, with a strong background in computing and technology. I have taught in secondary schools and further education, and I am currently lecturing, delivering structured lessons with clear objectives and measurable outcomes. I have worked with learners ranging from complete beginners to those tackling complex technical concepts, including students with SEN, adapting resources to build confidence and engagement. I understand the challenge students face when encountering new ideas or abstract material. I specialise in breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps using practical examples rather than rote learning, with a focus on understanding underlying principles. Every learner processes information differently. Some respond best to analogies and real world applications, others prefer exploring technical or mathematical foundations. I adapt my teaching approach to suit each student, creating a supportive and motivating learning environment.
