With over two decades of experience teaching Academic Skills and Research Writing, primarily in the UK, I have worked extensively with international students from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds. This experience has provided a comprehensive understanding of the academic standards of Western universities and the linguistic and cultural challenges faced by non-native English speakers.
My professional expertise lies in research, academic writing, and language education, supported by scholarly publications and regular participation in academic conferences and workshops. My teaching approach emphasises the development of effective learning strategies and proficiency in both written and spoken academic English.
The overarching aim is to enable students to engage confidently and critically with academic communication—viewing it not merely as a set of requirements, but as a means of intellectual expression. The approach integrates academic rigour with a supportive, student-centred methodology to promote meaningful and sustainable learning.
