Teaching

Until 2025 when I left academia, I taught and examined geographical information science (GIS) and applied climatology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels within Geography and Environmental Science degrees. This included the UNIGIS Distance Learning MSc Geographical Information Systems (GIS). These topics are my specialist areas and my teaching was research-led, exposing students to the latest research, policy and practice.

Teaching leadership included coordinator and moderator of several UG and PG modules, including developing assessments, examining, responding to student feedback and need, and preparation of documentation for exam boards.

I am experienced in leading Geography field trips including undergraduate induction fieldtrips to the Peak District National Park and various GIS fieldtrips. Additionally I have taught on several residential field trips including the undergraduate trip to Tenerife for environmental scientists and ecologists.

I am currently external examiner for two MSc programmes:

  • MSc Green Infrastructure at University of Manchester, UK.
  • MSc Applied Meteorology and Climatology at University of Birmingham, UK.
