I was Lecturer in Nature, Society and Development and Lecturer in Human Geography at the Geography Departments at University of Reading (2008-2010) and University of Exeter (2011-2014), respectively. I devised and taught undergraduate and post-graduate human geography modules, including Introduction to Geography, Humans and the Environment, Environmental Change, Geography of the Arctic, and Qualitative Research Methods. I supervised undergraduate and post-graduate dissertation research and writing. I was a subject and a personal tutor and I was responsible for setting and marking exams.

At the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge (2006-2008), I lectured in the Human Geography of the Arctic and was a geography tutor in two colleges.

From 2009-2011, I tutored the Open University Introduction to Social Sciences course, including both online and telephone tutoring and once-monthly face-to-face tutorials.

At the University of Aberdeen (2001-2005), I was an anthropology tutor at all levels of undergraduate study. At Maynooth University (1999-2000), I was a Lecturer in Anthropology and devised, taught and examined Economic Anthropology, co-devised and co-taught Environmental Anthropology of Ireland, and lectured and tutored the first year Introduction to Anthropology.

As an academic editor, I currently mentor students and academics to write dissertations, books and articles.
I also have primary and secondary school teaching experience. In 2014-2015, I was a TEFL teacher to Spanish children, adolescents and adults at the English Centre College of Languages, Almeria, Spain. In 2000-2001, I was volunteer English teacher at Levi Angmak Elementary School, Arviat, Nunavut, Canada. Finally, from 1995-1998, I was an English teacher at the two junior high schools in Sue-machi, Fukuoka-ken, Japan.
