I have a wide range of interests including triathlons, adventure sports, guitar and yoga. I have a passion for helping people which is why I chose to become an Occupational Therapist.
I think we all have the potential to help others :) In my case both a passion for learning, teaching, extensive training and experience make for a good fit as a tutor. I also have experience working at a special needs school as their in-house OT.
