"Passionate about effective education."
I graduated with a BSc in Applied Social Sciences (Anthropology) in 2016 at the high-ranking University of Southampton and then started my teaching career at a British Council accredited adult language school with a TrinityCertTESOL teaching certificate.
Since then, I have been passionately teaching students in the UK and around the world, having lived in the Netherlands, India and Thailand.
I returned to the UK in 2021 and started working at the University of Southampton in the Academic Skills team, providing tailored support to students from a wide range of faculties. Studying online, I gained a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education from Falmouth University and became a lecturer to international students on foundation year pathways to the University of Southampton (Bachelor's and Master's).
