Pav is a Teach First 2021 maths ambassador at Alderbrook School in Solihull. This is his story. I hadn’t planned to be a teacher, but Teach First supported me a lot through my education. I thought I might like to do something similar and give back.
It just so happens, I’ve ended up loving it.
EVERY DAY IS DIFFERENT As a teacher, you learn a lot about yourself. I became more reflective because after each lesson I was thinking about how to improve. I had a pupil who is brilliant at athletics. So I thought of a way I could use sports to help teach elements of maths.
“That’s when I realised I have a real passion for this.
You never know what to expect. Every day is different.”
