About

I was graded an outstanding teacher when concluding my PGCE in 2010, and I have continued to deliver high-quality teaching and learning over my 12-year teaching career. I have excellent experience in both English and Media Studies at national and international level, and have taught Key Stage 3, 4, and 5 as a teacher, tutor, and Head of Department. I am looking now to transition into primary education as I have two children; a two-year-old and a seven-year-old, and am seeking a part-time position to gain a healthy work-life balance.
