Whilst working at ISM, the greatest source of joy for me has been meeting the wide range of students who wish to excel in everything that they do; be that academically or in extra-curriculur activities.
In terms of my own teaching philosophy, I believe that our students achieve more when they work on active, open-ended activities which place no ceiling on their learning. Moreover, I enjoy sparking creative throught from the outset in lessons by playing innovative games, such as 'Maths Agony Aunt' and 'The Alternative' during science.
On a personal note, when not watching Manchester United, albeit through my fingers lately, I enjoy watching classic comedies, exploring Moscow and new countries.
