I have worked for Apricot since 2018 and am Head of English & Humanities. I teach English, RS, and PSHE. I have been teaching for 24 years and have taught in mainstreams, private schools, environmental centres, and alternative provisions. One of the best things about working for Apricot is meeting and getting to know the amazing students we have. I am privileged in being able to support their educational journey through interactive and personalised lessons. Teaching 1:1 or in small groups gives us the opportunity to get to know students really well and offer them a friendly, positive, and safe teaching environment. Seeing students succeed, who have previously found education challenging, is the most rewarding experience and is why I love teaching at Apricot. It offers a new way of learning and a new way of achieving for so many students. Another great thing about Apricot is our team of English and Humanities teachers; all who are professional and dedicated to creating a safe and engaging learning environment for students.
Outside of teaching, I have 2 children and a dog! I love walking the dog in the countryside, visiting new places, meeting new people, reading and writing.
