Sociology Film Club
A couple of years ago – November 2022 to be precise – we launched the Psychology Film Club as a way of offering our complete Psychology library of films to schools and colleges at a reasonable and affordable subscription rate (£25 a year or roughly 50p a week for access to what is currently 50+ […]

TheTeacherSociology has recently expanded her repertoire – presumably in response to the current need for on-line teaching – to create a range of tutorials […]
