"Passionate about learning rather than teaching and as such try to foster the same enthusiasm in my students."
I have worked previously as the Director of ICT at The British School in Kathmandu, Nepal where our award-winning student-empowered work in the immediate aftermath of the Nepal earthquake supported the construction of schools in remote districts and also the local community.
