Day 22 #ResearchAdvent The perfect gift for a researcher is…belief in your ability to achieve the PhD you’ve always dreamt of. And books. Obviously. From my Dad for Christmas. 💜📚

Me and @pauljglossop.bsky.social were actually twins today, and boy did we enjoy the festive feels those matching @derbyuni.bsky.social Christmas jumpers brought to the office.🎄🙌

Day 18 #ResearchAdvent I am utterly inspired by my FE & HE colleagues. Through my various roles I get to meet so many amazing practitioners, researchers & trainees. Their everyday practice blows my mind and motivates me to find out more, to learn more, so I can make a positive difference. 💜📚

I used to go to cafes to write (always on sofas) when I was working for myself (at the birth of @edukayte.bsky.social) and I loved it. Need to get back on it.

Day 12 #ResearchAdvent I appreciate all the mums (parents) who are studying while raising tiny humans. The struggle is real. 😂

Day 7 #ResearchAdvent I think everyone should read…more books. I love reading, I love closing a book I’ve just finished and finding the next one to hook me in. I’m currently reading ‘Feminine Mystique’. Before that I read ‘The Housemaid’. Books are the best. (Reading on a screen is the worst).

The beginnings of ‘EduKayte’, almost a decade ago. The business that set me free from an unhappy work life and led to so many brilliant opportunities. A reminder of a happy 9 years in work & so much achieved in that time. edukayte.wordpress.com

How has this day already arrived? Last day in University of Derby before PGCE FES trainees break for Christmas! What an amazing bunch of people. Absolutely delighted to be one of their tutors alongside Dr Dan Williams. All ready for their break but loved this term together! 🎄
