GCSE Business Taster Lesson
Our Taster Lessons are live events that give you the opportunity to meet our expert teachers and see what teaching and learning is like at our ground-breaking online school. Our Business Teacher, Mr Martin Begley, will lead an interactive lesson that will give you an idea of what it’s like to study his subject at GCSE and will offer you the opportunity to ask any questions that you have about Business GCSE and/or teaching and learning at Highgrove Online School during our Q&A.
Martin Begley holds a BA in Politics, Philosophy and Economics from the University of Warwick, and trained to teach Mathematics and Economics as part of the TeachFirst programme. Since qualifying he has taught at schools across London.
Mr Begley has been tutoring students from a wide range of backgrounds for almost ten years, supporting learners through to undergraduate level to achieve their academic goals. As a teacher he has drawn on this one-to-one experience to guide students through their A level exams, their time at school and make successful applications to top UK universities. His ability to build clarity and confidence in learners – regardless of their starting point – is a defining feature of his educational approach.
Mr Begley now teaches Business and Economics for Highgrove Online School and contributes to the authoring of our independent study courses.
