Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll eat for a lifetime. Teach a man to teach others how to fish and you create a life sustaining tradition. Teach a man on the history of fishing, and you innovate an industry forever... I am an artist, a scientist, a writer, a traveller, a performer, but above all, I see myself as an assistant to the young of today and tomorrow. The future is daunting and adulthood is no walk in the park, but what got me through the trials and tribulations of education and the 'grown-up' world beyond was the care and insights shown to me by certain teachers, mentors and coaches throughout my academic and professional career. Wise words, life-hacks, learning techniques, revision materials, research methodologies - they are some of the tools they gave me, which I hope to impart. I have years of teaching experience in a range of creative subjects in South Africa, Cyprus and the UK. Maintaining a broadly scientific, creative and theoretical education to a postgraduate level has honed my skills in the art of communicating across multiple media for the purposes of disseminating information. In a world where education is paramount and where digital and social media are the future, it is my intention to harness the power of analogue and digital communication for the purposes of educating and empowering the generations to come. As hommage to the great educators in history which have shaped the great minds of today, it is my maxim to assist in the learning and provision of support to those students who wish to achieve their greatest potential and achieve the levels of success they are capable of achieving. All it takes to attain ones full potential is the right encouragement, appropriating the correct teaching methodologies, communicating with ones students in a way that we mutually feel heard and understood, and creating the platform for ones students to practice their craft or learning with guidance and support.

My approach is very interactive and I use an array of multimedia appropriated to the students and what they best respond to. Whilst it is important to drill certain key points to ensure retention of some information, I find that essential learning comes from production of work followed by reflective analysis. Read less
