I completed a Post Graduate Certificate in Education at the University of Wales in 1993 and went on to teach in Further and Higher Education. Inspectors classified me and my colleagues as the very best in England. I started to teach literacy, initially to adults with special educational needs around 2007 and more recently completed a Level 5 Teaching English as a Foreign Language course during lockdown in 2021. I undertake voluntary work for various charitable organisations and help to fundraise using my transferable skills, such as TEFL. I can teach either English and/or coding (SCRATCH) online.
