What led me to teaching at the OU?
During my postgraduate studies with the OU my tutors were invaluable. I had no doubt I was able to complete my MBA thanks to the excellent support and encouragement I got from my tutors. From that experience I committed myself to payback if I ever had the opportunity. With several years of experience as AL, I remain committed to payback.
