Lecturer in Polish Studies Dr Stanley Bill has won the 2018 award for Outstanding Lecturer in the Annual Student-Led Teaching Awards organised by the Cambridge University Student Union (CUSU), which is the representative body for all students in the University.

This year CUSU received 591 nominations from students who went out of their way to recognise the hard work of supervisors and staff.  

Dr Bill’s award marks the third time in the past four years that academic staff in the Slavonic Studies Section have been recognised for their teaching by CUSU. Last year Dr Susan Larsen was commended for her work in the category of Innovative Teaching. In 2015 Dr Rory Finnin, Head of the Slavonic Studies Section, also won the award in the Lecturer category.

The entire Slavonic Studies Section, which is dedicated to offering students the very best in teaching and research, is grateful to Martha Krish, CUSU Education Officer, and the entire CUSU team for organising this exciting award competition every year. And we warmly congratulate Dr Bill on his well-deserved achievement!
