Maya McColm, the story behind NERO
Maya has worked in many areas of dietetic practice over her extensive 30 plus years’ experience. These areas include working in hospitals, research and private practice.
Maya went into private practice with the naive belief that private practice would provide more flexible work hours and greater remuneration to help support bringing up 3 young children under 3 years of age.
Like so many dietitians, Maya was passionate making a positive impact on her client’s health journey. Maya stated that, “few things give me greater pleasure than supporting clients to make the behavioural nutrition changes to achieve their health goals”.

Flipped Classroom – Nutrition Counselling Technique?
Further to our previous blog ‘Learning Styles and Nutrition Counselling’, understanding and incorporating learning styles can improve outcomes for our clients in professional practice. Therefore, when it comes to nutrition counselling it is important to utilise different and appropriate techniques to help maximise the education of clients and improve the outcome of consultation sessions. One potential technique could be “flipped classroom” teaching.
