I’m the eternal student and believe that something is only truly learnt if it can be successfully practised and passed on to the next person. I aim to do this for my students.
I am a very empathetic and approaching person so can quickly grasp what someone else is struggling with. Once I understand this, I make the effort to cater a solution for them.
