University Teaching

I developed and taught these courses at SJU and MSU for undergraduate students with a concentration in TESOL, linguistics, or education with a language specialization. Key assignments included designing, implementing and reflecting on pedagogical activities, analyzing examples of learner language use, and writing a reflective-analytical language learning autobiography. 

I developed and taught these courses as part of the Linguistics Program and the First-Year Experience Program at SJU. A key project for all three courses involved students designing and conducting their own research projects investigating language use in their daily lives.

I developed and taught these courses for the Spanish Program at SJU. As part of these courses, I created speaking task and oral interview assessments that involve students self-assessing their language ability and reflecting on their beliefs about L2 learning. 

I taught these courses for pre-university students in the Intensive English Programs at Penn and Drexel, and I developed several of them to be integrated into a curriculum for matriculated undergraduate students at SJU. A key assignment I created was a project where students investigate different academic discourse practices in each of their university courses. 

I taught these courses at the Intensive English Program at Penn. They are content-based langauge courses that reflect and incorporate different academic curricular specializations at Penn (e.g., communication studies, leadership, management, marketing,  psychology, sociology and sociolinguistics).
