I have been working at Bath Spa University teaching and supporting international students since 2001. I joined the School of Science, Society and Management in January 2011, as a lecturer in International Teaching and Support.   My responsibilities include designing and delivering pre-sessional courses, supporting international students  and teaching on the level 4 Business and Management  core module ‘Organisations and the Business Environment’. 

Previously, I worked for several years in Italy with Alitalia, Fiat and various banks as a business language tutor.  I then returned to London, where I worked as a director of studies, teacher trainer and tutor for Regent Language Training.  For over 20 years I have worked for Cambridge University local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) on their suite of international business examinations as a principal examiner, item writer and examiner trainer.  I have also worked for Bath University, designing materials and teaching on the PreMBA programme.

I have an MEd in Applied Linguistics where my research focused on Business English in HE.  I also have a teaching Diploma, and in 2011 was awarded the Certificate of Professional Learning in Higher Education.  My main area of research interest lies in curriculum design and assessment, and I am a keen innovator in the classroom.  I am currently involved in designing a new analytical mark scheme for UCLES to ensure validity and quality across examinations.
