Information about David

I am 58 years old and have been involved in the delivery and facilitation of education for all of my professional life. I have a lovely partner, four beautiful children aged between 11 and 28, and live in a quiet cul-de-sac in East Cornwall. I have a passion for teaching and a love of learning that I hope transmits itself to my students so that the learning experience is not only valuable, but also fun! I like to run and bodyboard, and occasionally fall off surfboards.
I like to be student centred in my approach to teaching so that the experience is led by the student`s interests and aspirations, and therefore the learning journey is owned and invested in by the student. There is no such thing as a bad student, only bad teaching, and I try to be the best that I can be so that the learning journey is a voyage of discovery for both student and teacher. I strongly believe in facilitation, not imposition.

Availability: Daytimes and evenings

Willing to travel: 30 miles

Experience: I have been teaching in a variety of settings for the past 30 years. I began my professional life as a youth worker before going onto university, and after that I have worked in residential centres with disaffected young people in North Wales, set up and taught on alternative educational programmes for permanently excluded year 11 students in Plymouth, and for the last eight years I have worked as a manager and tutor with Cornwall Adult Education Service delivering courses for 16+ in English, History and Initial Teacher Training, as well as a wide range of staff training including safeguarding and health & safety.
