Welcome to my personal website!
I am PhD Researcher in the Department of Psychology at Kingston University London, as well as Research Methods Tutor, Teacher, Special Educator and Columnist.
My research is about the social inclusion of adolescents with visual impairment and its comparison to the social inclusion of their sighted peers.
I have a Degree in Primary Education and a Masters in Special Education. Visual impairment has been my field of expertise for the last six years. I have certified qualifications in Braille and my Master's dissertation was about the academic and social inclusion of students with visual impairment in higher education.
I am currently working as a lab tutor and supervisor in Psychology and Quantitative and Qualitative Research Methods. I am also working as a teacher and I am supporting children with learning disabilities, psychological disorders and ASD.
I am also a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and I have QTS (Qualified Teacher Status).
In this website you will find information about my doctoral research and academic studies that I am taking part as a researcher, my presentations in conferences, my publications and my non-academic articles that you will find in my blog. You can learn more details about me by exploring the next pages.
Thank you for being here and keep in touch!
