I put all that I am into it. Much of my tutoring work has been word of mouth recommendation, citing my patience, rapport and desire for breadth as well as depth in education. I truly enjoy playing a central role in a student acquiring new and lasting knowledge. My postgraduate history study covered Roman, medieval European and Australian history, as well as Old English language and literature. I have received a letter of commendation and thanks from the Headmaster of Melbourne Grammar School, Wadhurst, for my professionalism and abilities as an educator and role model.
