I am a head teacher of a private EBD (Emotional, Behavioural Difficulties) secondary school and have founded a Virtual School for a private company in order to make education accessible to every young person regardless of personal circumstances. Within my role I have been responsible for creating education packages and marketing material addressing some of the most difficult questions faced by education today. I have always been politically minded and seen the world around me as an opportunity to ask questions and seek out answers where no one else would. In particular asking difficult questions such as "If we have been generating millions of pounds in charity each year why is there still famine in Africa?" The answers are often ones that people do not wish to admit to knowing, as it is within the politicians and governments that the money is held rather than in the hands of those that need it. I am also in the process of self-publishing my own non-fiction book this year which explores the process of losing religion but keeping faith, a concept many seem to struggle with as they try to box you into a categorised pigeon hole. I believe writing is a tool in which we can achieve so much from light entertainment to changing the views of a world to better our future. My Experiences Examiner - I have worked with AQA for over 2 years marking English Language GCSE papers focusing on content, comprehension, grammar, spelling and punctuation. This gives me a real advantage when proof reading. Education - As an educator I run a Virtual School for disengaged students where I write regular lessons on English, Maths, Science, History, Performing Arts, Art and Photography. I also guide students to write successful CVs and covering letters which enable them to access both work and higher education. In addition to this I run a secondary school in which I train staff not only in teaching and learning but support them through both under and post graduate degrees. Creative Writing - I am currently writing my first book which explores the Philosophy of life through the questioning of faith separate to religion. Articles and Blogs - I have been writing articles now for 4 months and have already delivered over 25 articles well within my deadlines. Although I am restricted to the time of day I am writing (as I write in the evenings and at the weekends) I am able to turn assignments around quickly and with accuracy on any niche. Usually working from a title and a few key words or instructions. Please do look at my portfolio for examples of my work. I look forward to hearing from you about this position and in relation to any other projects you may be running. My fees are as follows: $35 per hour Or $25 per 500 words $40 per 1000 words $80 per 2000 words These fees are negotiable depending on if the appointment is long term or short term. I am looking for a long term contract that will contract through Upwork to ensure payment security. I write between 7:30pm and 9:30pm most evenings and in the day on some days. I produce on average 2000 words per 2 ours and need contracts to be issued in bulk for these writing windows as waiting for these to be submitted slows down my writing. Thanks
