Biography

I am a Senior Fellow of the HEA with a varied, flexible skill set which includes the ability to teach, inspire and motivate. I am strategically minded coming from an industry background in Project Management with an in-depth knowledge of HE and exceptional understanding and empathy at many levels. Roles have included Framework Leadership, working strategically at a senior management level, working across the institution including the SU focusing on the student voice, championing the employability and student experience agendas and being a founding member of BU’s Centre for Excellence in Learning (CEL). I proudly excel where student feedback is concerned and am recognised for being intrinsically pedagogically driven where teaching excellence, the student experience and their preparation for the world of work are my strengths.

Profile of Teaching UG

  • Unit Lead. Exercise Physiology Level 5. Core 20 credit unit
  • Unit Lead: Applied Physiology Level 6. 20 credit Option Unit
  • Exercise Physiology (Level 5) - teaching coaching students the physiological systems that underpin sports performance so that they can understand the impact of training on performance. This includes not only the theory of the systems but also how to undertake laboratory based assessments and Douglas Bag work to calculate VO2 and VO2 max. Teaching is linked to first year coaching units and underpins the final year research units as students explore experimental design and face validity of protocol methodologies. Students work in teams to assess an unknown subject developing team work skills alongside professionalism, planning and problem solving abilities and key technical skills. I have been awarded 4 You're Brillaint awards from the students issued via the Student union for the design of the unit and the involvment of professional practice within the co-curricular in order to develop students' employability skills
  • Applied Physiology (Level 6) - an option unit for students who wish to specialise working with athletes from grass routes to elite. The content is guided by the requirements laid down by BASES, Personal Trainer and S&C qualifications. Students learn best practice in the field of physiological assessment and take ownership of the design and execution of bespoke physiological assessments for groups of up to 8 elite athletes. The unit is work related and develops students employability skills in preparation for graduation. I have been awarded 4 You're Brilliant Awards nominated by the students and issued by the Student Union for the quality of teaching, innovative curriculum designs and inclusion of professional practice opportunities. Data collection testing athletes with the students is used for publication purposes and informs my PhD. Research informed education at the very core.
