About
I work in physical education teacher education, with particular interests in health within physical education, health literacy, and physical activity and motor development among children and young people. In my research and teaching, I explore how physical education can foster health-promoting, inclusive, and meaningful learning experiences, and how pre-service teachers can develop practices that cultivate students’ enjoyment of movement and critical health literacy. I am committed to advancing the field by teaching, exploring, and adapting pedagogical models, thereby strengthening model-based teaching practice in physical education.
