Works as

Associate professor at Department of Education

Hus Y, Beteendevetarhuset Umeå universitet, Mediagränd 14, Beteendevetarhuset, 901 87 Umeå

I have extensive teaching experience at the department, particularly as course coordinator for the methods course in the Special Education Programme's degree project and undergraduate and master's thesis courses in education. I have authored several reports, articles, and book chapters within the research fields of education and curriculum design. Since 2008, I have also managed YouTube channels in both Swedish and English, outside my regular employment and in my spare time, featuring instructional videos and lectures.
