Teaching
Equip your students with the skills to engage effectively with disabled patients and clients.
Where Does Josh Teach?
Josh is currently an Associate Lecturer at London Met University, delivering lectures and marking work for undergraduate and masters' students. He has also taught at Bournemouth University, Goldsmiths’ University, Oxford Brookes University, and King’s College London.
Josh's teaching at London Met University is delivered to students on the Dietetics BSc and is split into two hour-long sections. The first is a talk on the Social Model and the second suggests scenarios to help students apply their knowledge.
A similar format has also been applied to work with Social Work students at Bournemouth and Goldsmiths' University, while at King’s College Josh has lectured on the Law LLB, utilising his own legal training.
How Will My Students Benefit?
Josh enjoys watching students grow in confidence throughout his sessions, observing that they become increasingly comfortable with asking him to repeat himself, and become accustomed to his speech patterns.
Josh's teaching looks to help those in future client-facing and healthcare roles to approach communication with disabled people compassionately and with confidence.
What Topics Can Be Covered?
Josh's teaching can be adapted into multiple formats, from workshops and seminar settings, to full course lectures. These sessions can cover a range of topics, including:
-
Different methods of communication.
-
Different models of disability, including the Social Model and its associated language.
-
Laws and statistics relating to disability.
-
Specific scenarios that students may find themselves in, adapted according to the group being trained.
-
Examining and deconstructing the language around disability.
