Personal Academic Tutor (PAT)

As a Personal Academic Tutor (PAT) of the University of Sunderland in London, my primary role is to look after the academic progress and provide tailored academic support to designated students. With over ten years' teaching experience in Higher Education, I have developed my own style of teaching and learning, student engagement and career guidance. While taken up government-funded research projects and thesis supervisions, I had also tied up partnerships with Hotels and Institutes for internships and graduate programs, study tours, Virtual Reality (VR) teaching modules, competitions, and education fairs.

My academic profile includes MSc in International Hospitality and Tourism Management, BEng in Engineering Management
