Hello, everyone! My name is David, and I'm excited to be your teacher this year! I have a background in teaching in mathematics. I’ve had the pleasure of working with all types of learners, so I’m here to support each of you on your unique journey. I love helping students grow and explore new ideas, so let’s make this a great experience together. Feel free to ask questions—learning is something we do best as a team! Hello, everyone! My name is David, and I’ll be your math and science teacher this year. I’m passionate about helping students understand and appreciate how math and science can empower our understanding of the world. In my classroom, we’re all explorers—learning together and supporting each other along the way. My goal is to make math clear, engaging, and relevant to each of you, no matter your current level or experience. I believe every question is valuable, and I encourage you to stay curious and open-minded as we dive into new topics. Let’s make this year a journey of growth, discovery, and success. I’m here to help, so never hesitate to reach out with questions. Let’s tackle this together!

Levels and Subjects I teach: I’m an English and History teacher with GoStudent. I can teach these at GCSE and A Level. As a professional writer I can offer academic and creative writing classes to adults and higher level students. I am a teacher of environmental science. I have an MSc in Conservation Ecology and extensive field experience in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Having studied and worked as a professional actor, I can also offer Drama/Acting classes to A Level. Languages: Apart from English, I'm also a fluent Spanish speaker. Preferred student age groups: I prefer to work with students from 10 years and older (to adults), however I have worked with students from 6 years up. About me: I have been a professional travel, environment, and creative writer for the last 20 years, and a teacher for the last 9. I have a background in acting, drama and conservation ecology and when it comes to teaching I draw on these skills to make my classes as fun, dynamic, and interesting as possible. I often use roleplay, music, media, and games to enhance students learning and understanding. Learning is so much easier when it’s fun and thought-provoking. I teach students from young children to the executives of large companies. Outside of my roles as teacher and writer I have also worked as an actor, journalist, conservationist and professional mountain and nature tour guide and tour designer. I love wildplaces. When not working, I love hiking, film, theatre, acting, travel, snorkelling, diving, photography, and martial arts. I also run workshops in creative writing. I have an MSc in Conservation Ecology from Oxford Brookes University. I decided to do this degree after living and working in Latin America, Africa and South East Asia for many years. Living and working as a guide, writer, and conservationist in these places inspired my love of the natural world. My degree is in acting and performance art. I was lucky enough to attend East 15 Acting School (which is now part of the University of East London) to study. I worked as an actor for many years, and I often include roleplay and drama in my lessons. For my A levels I studied English (A), Art (A) and Geography (B).
