This course delves into the historical events you've likely heard of but are eager to explore in greater detail. It's a joy to teach—we uncover the quirky, fascinating, and unsavoury aspects (and there are plenty!) alongside the key moments like invasions, battles, laws, and the never-ending line of monarchs (everyone seemed to want control over Britain, and the power struggles were fierce—it makes you wonder why anyone would want to be king or queen!).

We start with the earliest inhabitants of the British Isles and journey through major historical milestones up to 1800. Since this is an ongoing class, you can join at any time.

The class is engaging and interactive—questions, discussions, and problem-solving keep the history alive and relevant. I aim to keep class sizes small for maximum interaction, and I love when learners share their thoughts and knowledge. However, it's also perfectly fine if some prefer to simply listen. I use a PowerPoint presentation filled with maps and images to guide the lesson, but it’s far from a traditional lecture. My enthusiasm for history tends to be contagious, and I'm fortunate that many learners follow the entire series and attend other classes I offer.
