Summary

I am an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher of Physical Education and Maths. I always create a positive learning environment for my students and I have a strong ability to create rapport between my students and I. I like to incorporate multiple styles of teaching for my students to accommodate those with different learning styles. I also have a strong appreciation for different types of sports and coaching.
