Teaching

In 2021, I was appointed a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), an international accreditation in recognition of substantial, evidence-based teaching experience in higher education. I have four years of teaching experience, centering on research methods, critical appraisal, and scientific communication across undergraduate and postgraduate settings.

Broadly, my approach is student-centered, inquiry-driven, and shaped by active learning, practical application, and timely feedback. I aim to help students build confidence in rigorous scientific thinking while developing the ability to analyse evidence, communicate clearly, and apply their learning in real-world academic and professional contexts.
