About the researcher
Hi I am a 33 year old man soon to be finishing my OU Psychology degree. I've been studying this degree part time and by the time I finish it would have taken 5 and a half years. A long time but on course for the target I set myself back in 2011. It is likely I will look to change career and become a primary school teacher. My work history is sales and now procurement.
