In 2013, he took on the role of head of faculty at an international school in Spain, where he taught for four years and later moved to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for another four years.

Will appreciates the beauty of mathematics not simply from its concrete practical applications and its ability to help us understand the world, but also from its abstractness. He aims not only to nurture his students to develop as confident problem solvers but also to instil a passion for the subject.
