Describe your journey from leaving the university to where you are now
After I completed my Masters at Bedfordshire I went to London Metropolitan University to complete my PGCE in Secondary PE. From there I went on to work at London Academy in Edgware for two years before I moved to the UAE. I am currently completing my 4th year teaching Physical Education in an American school in Dubai. I am High School Coordinator where I am responsible for Grades 9 through 12 pastorally.
How do you feel your course has prepared you for your career?
I feel my Masters in particular significantly enhanced my tool kit and fully prepared me for my PGCE course. I still look back over my Masters assignments to reconfirm material I have learnt.
How did you find the support at the University of Bedfordshire?
On my Masters degree I was assigned an individual lecturer who could help me through each process and assignment. This allowed me to continuously develop my knowledge and understanding on all topics.
