Who I Work With

UK Universities & Higher Education Institutions (HEIs)

High quality writing sits at the heart of everything you do. Choose from a range of expert workshops that cover essential but often overlooked research writing skills: crafting arguments, mastering the literature, and analysing language data.

Educators & The Education Sector

Teaching grammar with no formal training? Bogged down in terminology? Grades below target? Book my expert-led Teaching Grammar for Writing. Unlock the magic of grammar for yourself and teach your students to write with clarity, confidence, and voice.

Public & Corporate Sectors

You’re a busy manager. You wanted a cogent report with clear recommendations. You got a disorganised hash of activity. And now AI is in the mix. Solution or slippery slope? My workshops [clickable link] on reporting writing and generative AI – when and when not to use it -- may be just what you need.

Creative Writers

Language. You use it every day. Want to harness even more of its power? You can, with linguistics. Take a break from prompt, share, repeat and learn the skills of a professional analyst. No heavy jargon, no prior knowledge needed. Just jump in and kick-start your craft with this deliberate experiment in style.

Research Writers

You know your research matters. But how do you convince editors, reviewers, scholars in your field, and policy makers? Join me for How to Really Write Your Literature Review [clickable link]. Equip yourself with the skills you need to break out of the describe-every-study trap and make a rock-solid case for why the world needs your research.
