In our 9th episode we speak to former BSc sport and exercise science and MSc Biomechanics student Dr Kim Duffy!! She doesn’t work directly in sport anymore but that does not mean her job isn’t cool and interesting!!!

Kim kindly opens up about her journey from LJMU to now helping to protect us all from the next pandemic!

Really really important work for our world is being done through the skills taught and developed here at LJMU.

Kim’s advice centres around being curious and asking people questions about things that you are interested in! A healthy mind is an inquisitive mind!

In this episode we talk to a former student but current staff member!
Conor from his undergraduate journey; has gained industry insight through connections at LJMU, has started his own consultancy, and, has a large responsibility in looking after our athletes!
We are very proud to showcase stories like Conor's as they highlight the real pull to our University, but, also the reasons to stay and continue to contribute to what we have going on here.

In this episode we explore Ella's journey to becoming a teacher. At LJMU we know that not everyone knows exactly what they want to do... that being said there is also people who have known for ages!

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.
