My areas of                                      expertise are in the learning and teaching of mathematics and statistics. I specialise in the teaching of these disciplines to first-year students.

Areas of Research / Teaching Expertise

My research area reflects my teaching interests. Currently I am involved in various projects that are examining the effects of maths anxiety and test phobia on the performance of students, and seeking effective strategies to reduce the impact of these.
