I am an experienced academic passionate about inspiring individuals to aim high. I have assisted multiple students and early career academics to acheive their goals. I worked in research and teaching roles within UK universities between 2004 and 2024 and am an Advance HE Fellow. My main areas of research and teaching expertise are in sociology and qualitative research methods. I am the author of four books, have published in a range of international peer reviewed journals and have chapters in various other books. I also have significant experience in peer-reviewing for academic journals.
I have taught social sciences, sport & exercise and health-related science students in sociology and history of sport-related modules as well as research methods, study skills and dissertation modules. I have supervised PhD students to completion and have acted as a university mentor providing academic research support and guidance to colleagues employed at various HE institutions. I have experience of designing, marking, and providing feedback on a range of assessments, including exams, essays, reports, proposals, presentations, and dissertations, at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. I have experience of approval events and collaborative provision between universities and FE colleges and have been an external examiner for undergraduate courses and PhD candidates. My CV is available upon request.
During my time working as an academic for over 20 years I have gained valuable skills and experience that enabled me to start my own freelance private tutoring, research and higher education consultancy business 'G. Academic' in 2023. I offer private tutoring to university students at all levels as well as training, mentoring and coaching to those new to research. In addition, I offer 'go to university' and 'transitions' talks to year 11, FE college and sixth form students. I am also available for external examining and guest lecturing, including study skills and research methods lectures, seminars or workshops. Moreover, I can provide editing, proof-reading, indexing and reviewing services for all types of academic writing and consultancy services for universities and other organisations regarding all aspects of research, teaching and learning in HE. I also offer specific advice and consultancy on research governance, impact, culture, ethics and integrity.

I have a long track record of supporting young people into further and higher education, as well as apprenticeships and jobs. I can support with CV writing, College and University applications and writing personal statements/cover letters. From the beginning of their career journey when young people are exploring their options, through to the application and interview process I will help to ensure they achieve their goals. The apprenticeship application process is complicated and incredibly competitive. I have specialised in recent years in working with young people to secure places on apprenticeship schemes at organisations including Goldman Sachs, Santander, Jaguar Landrover and the BBC.
Careers coaching can be offered as a series or single appointment.
With a Bachelor’s from Mumbai University and a Master’s in progress at Anglia Ruskin University, I have 5+ years in business management and HR. My experience spans startups and Amazon India, focusing on driving success and managing teams effectively.
