  • Student testimony describing a 2024 teaching awardee  

Each year our Trinity Excellence in Teaching Awards recognise the outstanding commitment of Trinity staff to teaching. Those nominated for an award are proposed by their students, fellow staff members, or alumni.  

The 2024 awards ceremony took place in the Provost’s Garden, and Linda remarked:  

“Each of us will remember a teacher or lecturer who inspired us to think differently or encouraged us to do things we thought were beyond our reach. The Trinity Excellence in Teaching Awards recognise those who go above and beyond in their teaching and I am very proud of this year’s recipients. They are all hugely dedicated to their students, innovative in and outside the lecture theatre, and incredibly inspiring.”
