About me
I am a qualified teacher, who will be working part-time in Bristol from September 2020. I am driven by a passion for using creativity to provide powerful learning experiences for children and young people, to support them to understand themselves, their communities and to collaborate. I am seeking freelance opportunities within arts and heritage education programmes or outreach schemes with children, young people and communities.
