I am well placed to guide your organisation in the development of exciting educational content as well as engaging and innovative courses.
I am a qualified tertiary educator and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy with a Post Graduate Certificate in Higher Education. I have seven years' experience teaching across history and the social sciences.
I have worked with organisations such as the Historical Association and the PTI on developing materials for secondary schools and consulted Reach University (US) on the development of distance learning courses.
Elsewhere, I have collaborated with the Centre for Tutorial Teaching on their curriculum: designing a course to help HE practitioners use the Tutorial Method and an interdisciplinary programme for 16-18 year olds from across the globe.
