What ugly mugshots especially with the beard

This page tells you wee bit about me. It is not compulsory reading. I worked at Scottish Further Education Unit from 1999 to Oct 2003 in various consultancy roles and I am currently a Business Manager at the Scottish Qualifications Authority.

Prior to this I worked for 14 years in an FE College in various teaching and latterly managing capacities. A brief outline appears below.

I have been very fortunate in the people and organisations I have worked with. They have all shared an interest in humanity and how we learn.

Something like this is really important if you are going to tutor on line. It prevents students thinking of you as some kind of programmed marking robot.
