My name is Njabulo Chipangura - I have a Ph.D in Social Anthropology and currently working at the University of Manchester. I teach courses in Academic Writing and Research Methods in Social Sciences, Anthropology, History, Sociology. I am also available to assist in dissertation writing - structuring of arguments and editing. I can also teach and tutor English Language for beginners and advanced learners. My teaching pedagogy is essentially premised on shared authority with students in which I allow for multi-vocality, dialogue and conversations. Being a university lecturer in the UK - I have knowledge of a number curriculums and I can be of use to learners who want to advance their critical conceptual analysis and methodological approaches to various research questions within humanities and social sciences. My approach is to research is one that centres on qualitative methodologies such as collaboration in knowledge production with communities through interviews, focus group discussions and participant observation approaches. Most importantly I can teach students on different forms of academic writing and help them in developing their own academic voice through reading and engaging with various texts without plagiarising which is a serious academic offence.
I have over 10 years experience of teaching and supervising both undergraduate and post graduate students in different humanities subjects. I have also extensively published journal articles and have a book as well under my name.
My teaching pedagogy is based on multi-vocality and conversational approaches with students which allows for shared authority as I guide them through various topics and academic issues.
