Somebody said quite flippantly at a pub one day, you'd make a good teacher. I looked into it and the rest is history as they say. Graduating from Birmingham meant I was able to embark on a lovely career.
“My top tip for students to make the most of their time at the University of Birmingham or undertaking their teacher training there would be to keep going and work very closely with their lecturers. As the lecturers are very supportive there and at University of Birmingham they are on hand to answer any of their problems or issues.”
