Welcome to my world.

I particularly welcome educationists, lovers of writing and teachers looking for ideas. I hope that you will find things to enjoy here, thoughts to stimulate thinking and recommendations about books, resources and ideas. After teaching for over forty years I still retain my passion for education and its pedagogies.

More specifically I am fascinated by the power of creative thinking, imagination, creative writing and poetry in helping people develop themselves. My enthusiasm for education and my vision for equipping young people for life’s journey continue to motivate me, believing that people are not bottles to be filled but candles to be lit.
