History Lecturer & Course Leader: Lifelong Learning & Adult Education

As an experienced History Lecturer and Course Leader specialising in lifelong learning, I provide high-impact educational programs that bridge the gap between academic research and public engagement. I focus on making complex historical narratives accessible to diverse audiences without compromising academic rigour. 

Academic Expertise & Curriculum Design

I offer a versatile range of history courses for adult education, adaptable for various delivery formats, including synchronous virtual learning, on-campus seminars, and intensive one-day schools. My teaching modules are structured with clear learning outcomes, designed to encourage critical thinking and historical enquiry. 


Example History Modules

  • Railways, Economy and Society in the 19th Century: A comprehensive exploration of how the advent of railways fundamentally transformed Victorian Britain's economy and society
  • Victorian Factories: The evolution of industry and infrastructure, examining the daily lives of workers alongside the rise of trade unions and factory legislation
  • Victorian Medicine & Society: An exploration of 19th-century clinical breakthroughs and social health reforms
  • The Industrial Revolution: Analysing the technological shifts that redefined global economies
  • The Great War (1914-1918): A comprehensive introduction to World War One, covering military, political and social dimensions


While ideal for history students, these modules also offer vital historical context for business, engineering and medical students seeking to understand the foundations of their field.

Postgraduate Mentorship & Supervision

I provide expert supervision for Masters students, emphasising methodological clarity and original research, helping postgraduate scholars navigate complex historiographical debates.

Partnership & Bespoke Course Development

I am currently open to enquiries from Higher Education Institutions and cultural heritage organisations to develop a bespoke curriculum based on my specific research specialisms.
