Teaching practice:

• Master Research Project (PG).

  • I have supervised student theses on a range of topics.

• Urban Ecosystems (PG)

  • Design and delivery of lectures/seminars on economic valuation

• Economics and Sustainability (UG)

  • Design/delivery/assessment of lectures, tutorials, assessments (formative/summative).

• Psychological and Economic Perspective in Decision Making (PG)

  • In-person and live online masters seminars.

• Data Analysis (UG)

  • Design/deliver two years of computer labs.

• Introductory Microeconomics (UG)

  • Facilitating in-class experiments + seminars + marking

Teaching recognition:

• Awarded Fellow of Advance HE (August, 2025).

  • A1: Threshold concepts + iterative reflection in lecture design

  • A2: Problem-based learning through narrative pedagogy + inclusive learning within-classes. 

  • A3: Formative + summative assessment design

  • A4: Tales from PGT supervision + student-centered approaches.

  • A5: CPD from the Digitially Enhanced Webinars at the University of Kent + my AI handout.

• Awarded Associate Fellow of Advance HE (May, 2021).

  • A1: Iterative reflection on computer labs. 

  • A2: Facilitation on in-person/online seminars.

• Key concepts:

  • My Urban Ecosystems experience put me on to Narrative Pedagogy (e.g.,  Connelly and Clandinin, 1990) and I think that's a coherent way to frame Problem-Based Learning; which can be used in many contexts (e.g., Archbald, 2010).

  • Ultimately, my practice is about helping learners along Bloom's taxonomy. Yes we can deliver content and get basic understanding, but how can we design (+ redesign) sessions to get more evaluation + criticality.

Here is my Fellow (D2) Advance HE application (2025)

• The reviewer overall decision was 'Award' and no revisions.

• The final version, albeit without supporting statements, is reproduced here but let me know if the preview isn't working.

• I am grateful to my peer mentor, and two referees who provided generous supporting statements. Thank you all.

• The word count is 3000 + 10% so almost all my examples maxed that out.

• I started writing from a complete blank page in April 2025 and submitted in June 2025. You can probably do it faster.

• I am happy to provide application guidance and feedback on drafts; just email me.

Here is my Associate Fellow (D1) Advance HE application (2021)

• This is the successful version with details of the minor revisions and how I addressed them at the end. 

• I had generous help from my advocate, although their statement is not mine to share, and teaching mentors at the University of Bath.

• I found it difficult writing this as there were so few relevant examples publicly available. I'm not saying this is exemplar material, but I hope it is more useful than a blank page.

  • Be aware that I think there's a debate over whether you are supposed to list your As, Ks, Vs in the text as I did.

  • Further, this was under the previous PSF2011 standards and not the latest version (PSF2023).
