James Forrest

Hello, my name is James, and I am from Cork, Ireland. I have a passion for a wide range of activities, including soccer, Gaelic football, hurling, golf, reading, drawing, and all aspects of coding, technology, and engineering. I have a keen interest in all sports and enjoy staying active. I am relatively new to Vietnam and Asia, bringing with me five years of teaching experience in Ireland. This move has been a significant change, and I am excited about the new opportunities it presents.

I am dedicated to creating a learning environment that fosters both academic growth and a lifelong passion for the subjects I teach. My teaching philosophy centers around engaging and inclusive lessons that accommodate diverse learning styles, ensuring that every student feels understood and valued. I strive to cultivate critical thinking, creativity, and effective communication in each lesson.

I lead my classes with a structured approach, setting high expectations for all students. I maintain a firm yet fair teaching style, emphasizing the importance of discipline and respect while valuing students’ opinions and ideas. Building a strong rapport with my students is essential, as it creates a supportive atmosphere where students feel heard and valued.

My ultimate goal is to inspire a passion for learning that extends beyond the classroom. By nurturing critical thinking and creativity, I aim to empower students to become confident and articulate communicators, equipped with the skills to succeed in their educational endeavors and beyond.
