With nearly a decade of experience supporting the delivery of Engineering and Design and Technology education, I am an astute observer and an adept problem solver. I am experienced in maintaining a watchful eye over a busy practical session, ensuring that students are a) safe, b) learning effectively and c) enjoying themselves in the process. I also take a keen interest in the projects that the GCSE and A-Level groups are undertaking, ensuring that I have a good understanding of each student’s project from the outset and maintaining at all times a sense of the possible manufacturing options for each project in order to help guide students to workable solutions whilst still leaving the ultimate decision to the student. I have strong interpersonal skills and can work effectively with individuals and groups of all descriptions, adapting my own approach to suit the demands of the situation and the needs of the team around me.
