Mr. Burgess

Teacher

Welcome to the "hunt" where Mr Burgess will be your guide,  as you explore the world :your oyster,  abounding with pearls. 
Be yourself, make mistakes and be inquisitive.  The only non-negotiable requirement is that you try, try and try some more.  My word is my honor, so mark my words when I say that I will be Fair,  Firm and Friendly. 
In your youthful, playful and sometimes childish ways, you are unpaid "teachers " who instill in me patience, compassion and commitment. I pledge to lead this hunt with these same character traits but don't expect perfection. 
Parents, I urge you to support us in this journey in every way that you can.  Pay us a visit, attend meetings and other activities and encourage your child to see the hunt through. 
My guiding principle is: It is easier to raise strong children than to fix broken men. 
Are you ready to get those pearls? On your mark, get set, go!

WELCOME! They call me Teach! I am a creative individual with a passion for music, digital arts and enriching the lives of young people in the Caribbean.

I currently serve as a PRU Digital Media Teacher at the Albena Lake Hodge Comprehensive School. In my off time I run a nonprofit digital studio providing mentoring, management and developmental services for Caribbean youth interested in digital art professions (KOTN).
