Teaching
Why do I teach?
My work at MMU is driven by a commitment to the power of education to transform lives. I came into higher education as a mature student having spent some years trying a variety of careers. Finding none of these satisfying, I turned back to education. That ‘turning back to education’ became the solution I was looking for and has provided the opportunity not only to transform my own life, but to help others do the same.
How I’ll teach you
My approach to teaching and learning is thoughtful, student-centred, and structured.
Subject areas
Sociology
Research outputs
My research interests emerge from a commitment to the study of situated human interaction as the site for the accomplishment of social order. Ethnomethodology and conversation analysis inform my research interests which currently focus on sites of educational practice, especially those of professional education in the post-compulsory sector.
