Hobbies
I love teaching through the use of real-world materials. Textbooks are too artificial and I often find that the students do not develop any transferable skills in that regard. I ensure that the students learn their subjects through fun and relevant activities and materials. When my learners can finally grasp a concept, it gives me immense joy :) When not teaching, I can be found volunteering at the local art galleries around Brisbane, and enjoying the city's sights and sounds.
