I have worked as a Lecturer with Doncaster College since 2008. During that time I have delivered teaching on a range of courses within the School of Business and Management. I strive to be innovative in my approach to teaching, and have been recognised for this, as in 2009 I was nominated for the NCFE Award for Innovative and Effective Learner Engagement.
