Information About Matthew - Salisbury teacher

Personal Description:

Between leaving the University of West England and starting at Appleford School in 2016 I ran my own production studio/gallery promoting and producing educational animation and film as well as working with other creative venues around the South of Britain.

In this time I have worked with children from ages 5 up to higher education. A lot of the work I have done is working with children in main stream secondary school but I have also worked with children with psychical and learning difficulties as well as children who have been excluded from school with antisocial behavioural problems.

I have an extensive knowledge of creative and practical skill and have good communication skills.
I like working as part of a team as well as independently.

Teaching Approach:

I take a very organic approach at first with the way I teach and feel that people and students should learn to find there way by themselves, but this is not always the case make sure i am there to help a student if needs be.
Clear direction and encouragement.
