I teach on a BA course in Communication Design 2 days per week, the rest of the time I work in the industry. I love teaching, I love doing design. The course I teach on has a major focus on visual research and on most projects, the students research folder is 50% of the mark. It allows students to develop a diverse range methods of research (visually and theoretical) within the scope of the brief - the focus is the process. As a tutor you guide the process, you don't direct. There's nothing better then seeing a shy first year leaving 3 years as an amazingly talented creative person who can actually think. If that's my ego thing c'est la vie.
