I am a fully qualified History teacher with a BA degree in Ancient History and a Master’s in Political Communication, both from Cardiff University. I always knew that I wanted to share my love of History, so I went on to complete a PGCE at Bath Spa University and became a teacher. I am currently teaching Lower Secondary, IGCSE and A Level students at an inner London NI boys’ school. Alongside History, I have taught both Religious Education and Geography, been a form tutor and led the school equality council.
I have an up-to-date knowledge of the History curriculum and am incredibly passionate about my subject. I thoroughly enjoy how history helps us understand the way we are today. It is a dynamic and exciting subject – as we study the past there are constantly new perspectives and voices to examine. Our history completely shapes our future, and I believe it is so important for students to learn about past events so they can better understand the world we live in.
I love history and I enjoy keeping up to date with politics putting my Master’s to use. When not engaging in these I enjoy playing netball; I am part of two teams and play twice a week. My love of sport continues into most games but especially rugby, and since being at an inner London boys’ school, I’ve even found myself enjoying football.
I am really looking forward to sharing my love of history with students at Wolsey Hall Oxford and hope to inspire the budding historians of the future.
