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.

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.
