感謝神讓我加入救恩這個大家庭！

I was born and brought up in Wales, UK.  When I was 18 I went to a teacher training college.  From the age of 11 onwards I worked part-time, right through secondary school and after leaving college I worked full time in a hotel as a waiter and barman, was a lorry loader and a forklift truck driver. However, this all came to end when my father thought it might be a good idea to use my qualifications and I started my teaching career in London in 1977. After 4 and a half years I applied to the English Schools Foundation in HK and I was accepted in 1982 and I worked for the ESF for 25 years.  In 2007 I decided to have a change and I became a Government NET in 2 local schools for 6 years, leaving because of my age.   I then worked part-time  and I have taught students privately, taken after school classes and I have also helped out friends in various schools.   I am definitely in the ‘twilight’ zone of my teaching career and I really want to help the students and teachers as much as possible during my time in Kau Yan.
I love movies, music, reading and sport.  My wife and I adopted a HK girl 9 and a half years ago and she goes to Glenealy school (ESF).  I go to the gym regularly and I take my daughter swimming on a regular basis.  I have passed Grade 8 on the piano but I still have piano lessons every week.

作為一位老師，除了教授學生知識外，也要關心學生的身心成長和培養學生的良好品格。我喜歡與小孩子相處，願意接觸、關心和愛護他們，了解他們心中的煩惱，幫助他們解決困難及發揮個人的潛能。我願意肩負神給我的使命：「教養孩童，使他走當行的道，就是到老他也不偏離。」(箴言22：6)盼望學生能在我的教導下，能夠「愛學習」和「學習愛」。

感謝神帶領我進入救恩學校這大家庭之中。

教育不單只是把知識傳遞，而且是一個教懂學生去思考的過程。讓他們思考所吸收的知識、思考人生的價值、思考人生的目標等。
「生命影響生命」，救恩老師的生命是充滿愛的，讓孩子在愛中愉快地學習、成長。救恩老師就像一個指示牌，把正確的方向指示給學生。

「我們愛，因為神先愛我們。」這愛便是我的動力源頭。我希望能透過我的生命去影響孩子的生命，讓他們能夠成為一個滿有智慧、懂得思考、堅守信念的「救恩人」。

I was fortunate to come across many great teachers in my life who influenced me positively in terms of not only knowledge, but most importantly, my character and value system.  This motivated me to become a teacher so that I can help to shape the pure and innocent kids in the same way.  I am grateful to be part of Kau Yan School, working with a group of teachers who are fully dedicated to education with love and passion and teaching a group of students who love learning from the bottom of their hearts.
