Role in the University

Geiriau Bach Tutor

Background

I was brought up in the south of England and studied Drama and English at Aberystwyth University. Wales, the Welsh and the Welsh language made a big impression and I always thought of coming back sometime. My dream came true in 2005, when  I started learning the language by  studying  for a Higher Education Diploma in Welsh Studies with the University of Wales, Lampeter. I now speak Welsh fluently and this has opened many doors, and  I am now very proud to be a Welsh tutor for adults, and hold dance and drama workshops through the medium of Welsh for young children and adults.
I became part of the Geiriau Bach team in 2009 and am in my element using my creative skills as a way to teach this lively and exciting course.
