Biography

My role as a Learning Advisor within the Learning Development Team involves working closely with academic staff and students within the Schools of Law and Sociology and Social Policy to embed   academic literacies in the curriculum.  I contribute towards, and lead in-curriculum teaching, and work alongside academic colleagues to create meaningful learning opportunities that build student confidence.   

In 2023, I was awarded a one-year LITE Fellowship, Developing object-based learning (OBL) at Leeds. This project will explore excellence in OBL, bringing good pedagogical practice into the curriculum and creating rich and rewarding learning experiences for our students.
