My favourite part of my job is helping people achieve their GCSE English, a key qualification which will open doors for them in the future.
Deb Williams started teaching at Lancaster and Morecambe College in August 2000. She came to LMC to help give excluded Year 11's a second chance and an opportunity at a fresh start in a new vocational environment.
Prior to working at LMC, Deb was a Youth Worker in Carlisle where she ran projects to aid young people at risk of being involved with crime. She than taught English at Preston College.
My favourite part of my job is helping people achieve their GCSE English, a key qualification which will open doors for them in the future. I also really enjoy the fun and interesting conversations I get to have with my learners. In the teacher education side my favourite part is helping trainee teachers gain confidence and knowledge in their new role.
When asked about why she enjoys working at College, Deb said:
I enjoy that I am contributing to the wider community, by supplying them with the knowledge to progress further in their personal and professional lives.
In regards to the teaching course that she delivers, Deb said:
Teaching is a challenging but very rewarding job. It takes a whole career to learn how to do it well – this course will give you a great start on that journey. The teacher training courses give lots of opportunity for interesting discussions and reading about the latest research in how people learn best. They focus on what really works in the classroom or workshop environment.
I love working with people of all ages and backgrounds and seeing them make progress and achieve their qualifications, sometimes in “small” ways, such as remembering how to do a written multiplication.
Teaching is my favourite part of the role, I love being able to help people reach that lightbulb moment in class! I also enjoy being able to inspire the next generation of Residential workers.

In my role as a course tutor I’m responsible for ensuring that my students develop in many areas, and not just Hairdressing. I like to encourage my students to improve their well-being as well as support them with their personal development and learning journey, to gain the knowledge to be successful within their course to achieve the qualifications they need to progress in the industry.
I love to see the difference between a student starting the course and then when they leave their course. They always gain confidence thanks to their new skills and it's amazing to see them leave with their qualification knowing that I have contributed in helping them achieve it.
We have a very knowledgeable and dedicated team from different areas of the animal industry. We offer a range of courses in Animal Studies at different levels to cater for a wide range of students. Practically, you will work with a range of animals on site, spend time in our laboratories and hone your skills further during independent work-related experience. Working with animals can be a fun and rewarding career but it does involve hard graft and dedication!
