About Peter:
Meet Peter Williamson, primary school teacher whose hobbies are kite surfing and pub quizzes. At 28, Peter is a seasoned primary school educator who is passionate about Education. He has seen a swathe of 'tweenies' grow up and move on to high school. He has witnessed the struggles of youth on a socio-dynamic level - who the 'cool' kids are, who and how this 'cool' is determined and the tools such as cell phones and the clothes that accessorise the state 'trendiness'. In the classroom he has observed how learners who are constant communicators via text and cellphone applications such as 'WhatsApp' are less successful in the formal examination environment especially in the language (English) subject. Peter has made it his mission to bridge the gap between what is viewed as 'outside' vis 'inside' classroom language use as he believes this will contribute to a more successful and well-rounded student.
