“I see teaching as a way of developing dialogue, and I see being a teacher as being someone who enables students to unlock and achieve their potential. I love the social and dynamic aspect of teaching and thoroughly enjoy assisting students in their own-going development. I prefer fostering a student-centred approach, whereby the sessions are more meaningful and more constructive. Being a teacher is an important role and it is something I feel much pride in.”
