Justin was my Spanish teacher at Dr Challoner’s High School in Amersham from 1982-88. He was an inspirational teacher, and hilariously funny - and I definitely wouldn’t have got a place at Oxford to read Spanish without his help and advice. I then went on to be Head of Spanish at two Oxfordshire girls’ schools. None of this would have happened without him. RIP
