Stories are extremely important in law. In daily practice, law revolves around conflict situations in which judges, parties and the public make choices. Marc Veldt is an assistant professor in education and law, and sees education and communication about law as a narrative practice. His legal knowledge covers several areas: human rights, European and international law, legal theory, constitutional and administrative law, national and international criminal law, intellectual property and private law. Marc has taught these subjects at several universities. He has been teaching courses, and supervising theses, at the department of Constitutional Law, Administrative Law and Legal Theory since September 2023. Until that academic year, he also supervised theses in criminal law and private law at UU, and led working groups on European law.

Marc also focuses on writing skills. He teaches and researches it. He does this as a member of the Legal Skills Academy, and as a member of an interfaculty research project into writing instruction in the bachelor's, and the development of students' written skills during the first three years. In a previous study, he examined effective peer feedback to improve the quality of writing assignments and writing skills. Marc also teaches writing. He has designed a module for law students on writing in 'plain language', and for students from all faculties a module on clear and appealing writing for readers outside your field. 

Part of his work takes place within the Legal Skills Academy (LSA) of the Law department. The LSA develops and supports courses to develop students' legal skills. The LSA is also an information center that organizes meetings on teaching skills and provides teachers with knowledge and expertise.

Marc is also an experienced journalist and writer. He has written many articles for newspapers and magazines, including on legal topics, and a textbook on intellectual property law. He also published weekly about legal cases for years, for readers who were usually not legally trained. Hence his focus on storytelling. He has also conducted research for documentaries about legal conflicts, and background programs about the work of the police. He has also filmed and edited television reports.

Marc has previously taught at Radboud University, Amsterdam University College, Erasmus University, and the Utrecht University of Applied Sciences. In addition to law, he taught journalistic skills at the School of Journalism.

Marc graduated in Dutch law, specializing in international and European law, from Utrecht University.
