Member of the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies

Originally from Toronto, Professor Cameron Montgomery completed his undergraduate degree in English Literature and Secondary Education at American University in Washington D.C. In 1995, he obtained a French Language Certificate from the University of Bordeaux, France while teaching English as a second language at a private language school. Upon his return to Canada, he received a doctoral scholarship from the Graduate Studies’ Foundation at Laval University where he earned master's and doctoral degrees in Educational Psychology. His doctoral thesis is on the relationship between student teachers’ stress and social problem solving.
After having completed his doctorate in 2001, he moved to Edmonton, Alberta and worked as an assistant professor at Saint Jean Campus, University of Alberta until June 2003. He has been working at the University of Ottawa since July, 2003 at the Faculty of Education with a concentration in teaching and learning.

Professor Montgomery is interested in the student teaching experience. He tries to understand how stress influences student teachers; more specifically, he tries to explain the link between stress, coping, and burnout. Funded by Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, he completed a research project on the subject and has published numerous articles in both national and international journals. He also has done research on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). He has been invited to present his research in over ten countries.
