Information about Garvit
I have had inspirational educators who have guided my discovery of a subject, shaping my attitudes towards learning. I will use real world examples, specific to concrete experiences, to draw out abstract theory. This will enable learners to think like economists.
Availability: Afternoons, evenings, weekends
Willing to travel: 10 miles
Experience: I have been a teacher, questioning what makes good teaching during learning sessions led by higher education mentors. During a four month school placement I planned, delivered and reflected on lessons for KS4 and KS5 Economics and Business Studies with mentorship from school mentors. I have developed a repertoire of ideas to test, debate and evaluate. I identified principles for choosing resources and syllabus and understand the centrality of the student in the learning process.
My academic interests are in Economics, International Development and Education. Growing up in Kenya with frequent trips back allows me to compare and contrast socio-economic conditions between the UK and Kenya. The differences between and within countries. I chose studies in Economics for an avenue to answer questions that arise such as inequality. Working in International Development exposed me to field research and report writing. To further my academic skills I haave read MSc. Development Economics at SOAS. My academic experience has helped me identify my path as a social science educator. My goal is to develop learners to be responsible citizens with freedom and prosperity.
In my free time I like to take part in improver acting sessions. Exploring the use of voice and through vocal exercises, developing creativity and spontaneity through improvisation.
