David continues to maintain close links with education.

He is a personal tutor as part of the RIBA professional qualification programme for office based candidates, called RIBA Studio. The programme is run with Oxford Brookes University and enables candidates to undertake RIBA parts 1, 2 and 3 courses whilst in gainful employment.

Previous to this, for over five years David held the post of a design tutor on the architecture degree course at Kingston University. He has also been a visiting studio lecturer at the Bartlett, University College London and Sheffield Universities.

In addition, David is a RIBA student mentor, a voluntary scheme aimed at offering an insight in working practice for undergraduate students.
