My teaching and education experience is diverse! I served as a primary school governor responsible for Maths, English and Special Educational Needs for 4 years and on a Humanities exam board committee. For more than 30 years I have been lucky enough to tutor the home-schooled and school phobics; taught in private schools, colleges, evening class, prison and university, covering many subjects and levels. I have taught The Arts Past and Present, Cultures, World Archaeology, Archaeological Skills & Techniques, Material Culture, Forensic Archaeology, The Roman Empire, Greek and Roman Myth and MA Classics for the Open University. I have also taught UK GCSE and A-Level (Adults and Years 10 - 12) at two local colleges.
Enthusiastic!
