Teaching and learning

I currently work as In-sessional Lecturer in the EAPD [English for Academic and Professional Development] department where I support students across different disciplines with their academic communication skills. I also teach on KLS English, which offers courses to support Kingston's international students in developing their general and academic language skills and the Pre-sessional English course which prepares international students for their studies in the UK.
