I am truly honoured to have been nominated for the UWS Students’ Union Big Award for Innovative Teaching! This recognition is incredibly special because it comes directly from students of UWS School of Education and Social Sciences at the University of the West of Scotland, UWS London Campus - making it a deeply meaningful acknowledgment of my efforts to create engaging, impactful, and innovative learning experiences. While I have not been shortlisted this time, just knowing that my students appreciate and value my teaching approach is a huge reward in itself.
