About Craig
I taught English first language from 1990 to 1998 in KZN. It was in my first year that I began to use music to teach poetry and to introduce pupils to the tree folk, look for fairies, and do out-of-the-ordinary things to make the subject interesting. One junior class spent a loooong morning hiding away in my classroom when we did the Diary of Anne Frank. Probably the most outrageous thing was, through a friend in town, staging that the police arrest me in my classroom -- in front of a group of startled teenagers! In 1999 I moved to Gauteng, where I played guitar on three projects before being given a National Arts Council grant to do presentations for schools. With the further help of churches (who printed worksheets), I would arrive at rural schools in KZN and, over the morning, cover the matric poetry syllabus. This was a high point in my teaching career. I taught again from September 2000 to 2002 in an IEB school in Senderwood, before leaving to pursue a career in publishing. This was mostly as the editor of an agricultural publication, now the website (concealed information) During this time, I have still been involved in teaching by assisting the children of friends with various school assignments, mainly preparation for exams.

My background in teaching has been in the classroom and in small tutorial groups. I have engaged remotely using a camera since leaving the teaching profession when a colleague and I do business meetings. At this lockdown time, we will do our lessons remotely. Lessons are structured around what your needs are, be this literature, poetry, orals, writing, or general language.

Perfect! My experience with Craig was fantastic - he was patient, fun, and professional. He made the lesson easy to understanding and enjoyable, and his passion for the subject was contagious. I found myself feeling far more confident with the topic by the end and I would gladly have him as my exclusive tutor! He has a unique and creative take on the topic, so I would recommend him to everyone who wants to learn from a brand new perspective. Looking forward to all future lessons. Thanks for everything!
