Workshops    
 
I have 14 years teaching experience in photography. In 1995 I lectured in Cape Town, co-ordinating a 3-year diploma course at a private art school. In the UK I have been involved in both post-compulsory education as well as holding various workshops and courses in London and across the South East of England, tailored to suit specific groups of learners, from NGO organisations, photo-enthusiasts and avid travellers. For any queries or CV requests please refer to my contact details below.
