Teaching's not for me!
Teaching was never supposed to be my main career path.
It was something I did based on the recommendation from my father (who is also a teacher) as it would always be something that I could fall back on.
Little did I know that I would enjoy it so much, not only did it turn into my passion, I managed to get pretty good at it, and it completely captured my imagination!
Here I am 10 years later enjoying a profession that gives me a reason to get up every single day.

Is teaching everything?
Away from teaching, I enjoy spending time with my 8 year old, keeping fit and going to the gym as well as playing football.
My other interests include fettling with cars, machinery and generally anything with an engine.
As an avid tech head I am constantly after new gadgets to play with and always learning about the latest trends in technology (education or not!). I enjoy building my own computers, setting up my own home automation projects and creating random things to keep me busy.
