Gary Hall

Lecturer - Sport and Exercise

"I still work in the industry; it is important to me and my students that I am always up to date with current ways of working. I work together with my industry contacts and students to organise additional training, which complements their studies."

Charlotte Grant

BSc (Hons) Applied Physical Education and Sports Coaching (Top-Up)

"You dive deeper into subjects you wouldn't associate with teaching and coaching. Like a lot of psychological stuff and well as physical. It’s a nice variety, but also all the opportunities we are given."
