🚨 Just under ten years since I first stepped into City as a postgraduate student, it's now time to finally say goodbye, as this is my last year of teaching here.

Hey @TowerHamletsNow, fancy picking up our rubbish at some point?!

Reminder that the BBC is one of the only broadcasters that would do such dedicated reporting and investigative journalism pointing out the failures and flaws of themselves.
Hi @TowerHamletsNow, long time! I guess it's that time of year again, when you are not emptying URSs? Two weeks running now and the rubbish is starting to pile up...

When @cityjournalism win highly commended *AND* the Hugh Cudlipp @londonpressclub student award. A phenomenal achievement following a year of hardwork for @Oli_J_Mansfield, @fifidaisymay and @jacobperkinseu. To say I'm proud of them all is a spectacular understatement. – at Camberwell, London

.@GeorgeNegas is being modest here, and that I simply cannot abide. The model of digital teaching he has developed at @cityjournalism across the @BJTC_UK accredited courses has been nothing short of extraordinary, and the success graduates have enjoyed is testament to that fact.

This is one for any @cityjournalism students *ESPECIALLY* those coming to the end of their course. There's £1,000 up for grabs in the @londonpressclub Hugh Cudlipp Student Award 2024. It's a fantastic opportunity to get yourself started in the industry.

I'm proud of what we built around our digital teaching on the two @BJTC_UK-accredited courses.
During my studies, we ran our own little blog every week.
Now, students manage a fully-fledged multimedia website with liveblogs, and produce content for six social media platforms.
No words can describe the immense gratitude I owe Sally Webb, my lecturer, turn-line manager, now lifelong friend.
I hope I was able to channel even an iota of her passion for teaching and true care for our students.
Teaching alongside her has been the privilege of a lifetime.
I had been contemplating the thought of leaving for a some time, but I just couldn't. I enjoyed it too much.
But with the courses moving on, it’s time I finally did the same thing.
I truly wish the department and the courses the continued success they deserve.
These nine years have been extraordinary.
I hope we have served our students right and helped them develop their skills and build the confidence to pursue a career in journalism and, ultimately, achieve their dreams.

I was going to screenshot then post the pic. But Matt’ll likely invoice. So yeah. What he said ❤️ – at Poplar, London

I'm incredibly lucky to be in this position, and that fact has never been lost on me, not once. I look forward to seeing them shape and guide the news agenda into the future.
Now to rest and reset. – at London, England
