Hobbies
I am interested in digital media, the visual arts, cinema and film. I make documentaries in my spare time and have a strict and rigorous ethic in everything I do. I enjoy identifying and maximising every student’s strength so they are capable of achieving their goals. I am also mindful of the individual needs of students and adapt my methodologies, to connect with the student’s own critical thinking, to show ways of addressing a task, as I do with my own artistic work. I specialise in exam technique and methodology in order to ensure the student feels he has ownership of the process and is able to obtain a successful. I believe that academic confidence is what makes student succeed or fail. I aim to work with each student individually to improve this confidence and give them the tools they need to meet the demands of the academic task in hand
