About Me

I graduated from Oxford last summer and immediately took a 6 month receptionist job in order to save up to go travelling. I have been in East Africa since January 14th with my friend from university. I have to be back in the UK in June to start my training to become a history teacher through the scheme called 'teachfirst', a charity which aims to tackle educational inequality throughout the country.
