I am passionate about teaching archaeology. At the Department of Classics and Archaeology, University of Malta, I primarily teach about prehistory, in the following units:

ARC1005: Human Evolution and Prehistory (link).

ARC1105: Introduction to Human Evolution (link).

ARC3005: The Prehistory of North Africa (link).

ARC3034: The Prehistory of the Western Mediterranean: Sicily and Sardinia (link).

I have also taught occasional lectures in other units, as well a ‘monographic course’ in 2021 on ‘Mobility and Dispersal in Hominin Prehistory and Evolution. I also coordinate the department’s annual training excavation (ARC2015/2125; link), which in 2022 and 2023 was at the Marnisi site (Punic to Early Modern).

From 2012 to 2018 I lectured and tutored on a variety of topics at the School of Archaeology and St Peter’s College, University of Oxford. Units included ‘Perspectives on Human Evolution’, ‘The Nature of Archaeological Enquiry’, and ‘Landscape and Ecology’.

I am a fellow of the Higher Education Academy (UK).
