I have been working as an IB Business Management and Economics teacher and tutor for more than 11 years. I have a proven track record of high performance and outstanding students results. Also, I've been working as an IB Business Management examiner for 11 years. I prioritize student-centered learning, placing students’ needs, interests, and goals at the heart of my teaching. By emphasizing inquiry-based learning, I encourage curiosity, exploration, and active participation in the classroom. This approach allows students to develop critical thinking and exam skills while taking ownership of their learning process. I believe that every student is unique, requiring diverse approaches tailored to their interests, learning pace, and lifestyle. By creating a flexible and supportive environment, I aim to help all students reach their full potential, not only building confidence in their abilities but also preparing them thoroughly for their exams. My ultimate goal is to nurture lifelong learners who are equipped with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed academically and beyond.

With over 30 years of experience teaching Mathematics and Physics at IB, A Level, and IGCSE, I’ve had the privilege of working in nine different countries.

Outside the classroom, I’m an avid long-distance cyclist, having explored routes across Australia, New Zealand, China, Africa, and Canada.
