Adam Lam McNelly

Belfast

Summary

Driven and environmentally conscious, I am a graduate of Nottingham University with a specialization in Global Climate Change, Sustainability, and Environmental Policy. I bring strong analytical, research, and communication skills, honed through both academic projects and real-world applications. My dissertation explored the environmental impacts of abandoned coal mines in Lough Neagh, deepening my expertise in addressing complex environmental challenges. In addition to my environmental background, I hold a CELTA certificate (PASS) from International House (IH) Belfast, where I gained practical experience teaching and engaging diverse groups of learners. Through my CELTA training, I developed skills in classroom management, lesson planning, and creating dynamic, learner-centred environments, demonstrating my ability to effectively communicate complex ideas and adapt to different learning styles.

With a solid foundation in environmental science and proven strengths in communication and education, I am eager to contribute to sustainability initiatives and global climate solutions.
