Ella speaks about her call to a teaching vocation founded in inspiration from her secondary school PE teachers and her lecturers at John Moores. She also speaks about the confidence nurtured with us on her course, in order to be the best teacher she can. She believes exposure to different teaching; avenues, demographics and settings at LJMU, has helped her to deal with any situation that is presented to her in her role as a PE teacher.

BSc Sport Coaching - Emma Langhorn

In this episode, we speak to Emma who completed the undergraduate in Sport Coaching. She talks about her passion for coaching in sport but also helping others. She talks about how LJMU equipped her to not only fulfil her professional goals and aims, but also to unite that with one of her purposes in life, which was to give back and provide a service and experience that she didn't have. We are so proud of Emma for this, but also for her speaking about it and drawing attention to the wider implications of studying here at LJMU.

BSc Sport Development - Rebecca Garlick

In our fourth episode we speak to Rebecca Garlick who works for the Football Association.

She also speaks of the importance of networking within LJMU whilst you have access to world leaders. She details how keeping in touch with people can pay dividends down the line in your career. We are ranked very high for teaching according to University evaluators, but we also like to think, we are ranked higher for our commitment to looking after our students according to them.
