Meet the team

Dr Nadia Terrazzini, course leader

My professional field of expertise is Immunology. I am very passionate about promoting the understanding of Immunology to students, who often find this subject very complex. I try to introduce an element of fun in my teaching including everyday analogies (e.g. comparing the working of the immune system to a football match), story-telling and PowerPoint animations, and also use online game-based learning platforms.

In 香港六合彩资料, we aim to make students feel part of a community that supports them while at university and for life, for all aspect of their academic and personal life. In our school, there is a strong emphasis on the application of science and we train students to put theory into practice using specialist labs and equipment as well as field trips.

The best thing about teaching undergraduate students is how much I learn myself. While making my lectures up-to-date and engaging, I keep learning new material and new ways to present it. Therefore, teaching my specialist subject area gives me a deeper understanding of topics. I also love when students who initially found Immunology difficult, tell me it is their favourite subject!
