Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Like many people across the world, I am an ardent football fan and have been as long as I can remember. In addition to playing over a decade, refereeing in leagues, and coaching numerous teams, I am also a student of history and am enamored with the story of the sport. I have a passion for teaching and a passion for football, which combines to make this a unique class for avid fans, those interested in playing the game, and those just wanting to learn about a new sport!
