Summary
Working in a school, it is the success of the young people in their practical lessons that is my main motivation.
I enjoy following the progress of the young people from the nervous newbies to University, They are like a 7 year project that requires development, with regular reviews, and often a lot of empathy for following the rocky path of puberty.
To work for a charity that helps to ensure every child has a positive experience at school and in their formative years is a unique opportunity. To be able share my skills with your charity and support those children and young people would be a privilege.
