We know that having an inspirational teacher can make a huge difference to how you learn. Here in DCU, we wanted to share with you some short videos of DCU’s excellent teaching staff who really know how to bring their subject to life.

We asked DCU lecturers what inspires them to teach and how they motivate their students to learn. Check out the video playlist, we think you'll like what you hear.
