Beyond the classroom
Outside lessons, I'm a former Taekwondo instructor and 4th degree black belt, an orchestral and choral musician whose compositions have been performed at Washington Cathedral, and a keen hillwalker who organised a Three Peaks Challenge raising over £10,000 for charity. That mix of discipline, creativity and outdoors grit is part of who your child will be learning with.
