Profilemepresentingiatefl

I completed my PhD in Applied Linguistics and ELT in 2017, focusing on authenticity and motivation from an international perspective. I am particularly interested in sociolinguistics, language and identity, language teacher education and the psychology of language learning. I have recently begun researching into the effect of digital media on language, and I am interested in social justice. I have an eclectic mix of interests and I try to be passionate about everything I do.

担当科目について  Classes Taught

Discussion and Presentation 1 and 2. Writing Workshop 1 and 2 and Advanced Academic English 1 and 2. Lecture course Special Topics in Language Studies. Specialist Seminars on Language and Identity and Language and Digital Media. Teaching Certification courses. I also teach post-graduate courses on the MA in TESOL, focusing on materials development.

The aim of my classes is to promote a better understanding of how to approach literature in a second language and to learn the critical academic skills needed to study at university level. For each class I assign various short texts and poems. Students can choose topics that most interest them to do project work on. I aim to make my classes motivating and empowering for students.
