I have been teaching Sociology for 9 years and thoroughly enjoy it. I also tutor in my spare time. My lessons are centred around the use of student work booklets. This is something I have developed over a number of years and I think it really enhances student learning and contributes to good exam results. I like to include a range of activities throughout my lessons including discussion tasks, group work, video clips, text dissection, exam question construction, knowledge checks and much more.
