The topics I teach are educational psychology issues that are highly relevant to teacher education such as special learning needs, depression, anxiety and bullying in schools.

I hope to further develop my research skills through my role in the FIT-Choice project. I also plan to gain more experience as a psychologist in the school setting supporting and educating teachers of students with additional needs in the mainstream classroom.
