As an Associate Lecturer at Exeter College, I deploy an academic and rigorous approach to teaching English. In conjunction, I serve as an Associate Lecturer for INTO Partnerships, playing a significant role in the pre-sessional programme at the University of Exeter.

My transition into academia was informed by a diverse professional background. I previously served as an Executive Assistant in several global banks, managed familial commitments, worked in various teaching roles (EAL, ESOL, and EFL) in independent, state, and summer schools. Moreover, I served as a British Army Reservist in the Princess of Wales Royal Regiment (AGC), an experience that entailed operational tours overseas.

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Education, under the supervision of Prof. Salah Troudi and co-supervised by Dr. William Pearson. My research is centred on “The experiences of international higher distance education students from a UK perspective”; a topic motivated by my own experiences as a distance-based student.

My scholarly credentials include a BA in American Studies from Canterbury Christchurch University, a Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching English for Academic Purposes (TEAP) from the University of Leicester, and an MA in Applied Linguistics with TESOL from the University of Kent. In addition, I hold a CELTA certification. These qualifications collectively form the bedrock of my pedagogical approach and continue to guide my teaching practices.
