I have taught EAP in China since 2014  XJTLU, Suzhou university and CNST, all based Suzhou. Prior to coming to China, I taught general, business and exam preparation English courses in a few counties including Ireland, Vietnam, Japan, Korea, Turkey and Spain. I have also worked as an IELTS examiner and worked in pre-sessionals in the UK. I enjoy exploring new places, painting and drawing and cycling.

Groupwork and the influence of peers on student motivation. I am also interested issues surrounding teaching EAP and ESP to lower English proficiency students and ESP curriculum development.
