I am a Senior Education Designer and Adjunct Lecturer specialising in international higher education, learning and teaching design and TESOL. I have engaged with different research methods and tools, such as online surveys and SPSS for quantitative analysis, and semi-structured interviews and Nvivo for qualitative research. Some important theories that I have worked with are Bourdieuian habitus, field and capital, Communities of Practice, and theories around internationalising curriculum and quality assurance for learning. I welcome collaborations in the aforementioned areas.
