Muzammil Bi Zaman

My students call me Muz, and I bring a unique blend of expertise in both early childhood education and business management to my teaching at UCB. My deep understanding of child development theories, play-based learning, and early learning frameworks enables me to design and deliver age-appropriate, engaging, and inclusive lessons that support children’s social, emotional, and cognitive growth. Drawing on extensive academic and professional experience in the early years sector, I ground my teaching in real-world practice, promoting inclusive strategies and igniting curiosity in future practitioners.

Alongside my early years expertise, I hold a Master’s in Enterprise Management and I’m a member of the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). I’ve taught a range of business and management subjects at both Further and Higher Education levels, and I regularly deliver lectures on marketing, consumer behaviour, market research, entrepreneurship, business planning, organisational behaviour, and business strategy. 

I also have interests and expertise in curriculum design, assessment, and the application of digital pedagogy and artificial intelligence. My cross-disciplinary experience enables me to bridge the worlds of education and business, showing students that empathy, leadership, and strategic thinking are essential in every field.

I believe that education is a transformative journey, and my top priority is making sure that every student feels welcomed, respected, and capable of reaching their goals. When students face challenges, I take a personalised, empathetic approach to help them break down obstacles and find a path forward. My students consistently value my clarity, practical approach, and the inclusive, supportive atmosphere I create in the classroom.

In my spare time, I’m passionate about travel, exploring different cultures, and engaging with new ideas.
