The aidan.co.uk site presents the work of Aidan O'Rourke photographer, writer, linguist, freelance tutor and trainer.
I am a creative all rounder who has made a career out of my passion for languages and photography. I share these and other interests from Art to VWs through tutoring and via this site.

I give private tuition and small group classes in photography as well as languages: EFL, German and French. My photos are available as high res files, canvases and prints.

My aim is to help others achieve their personal, professional and creative goals as well as achieve my own goals.
