Teaching and Research Fields
My background is in Teaching English as a Foreign/Second Language. In particular, my teaching and research experience is focused on academic writing, particularly process writing and use of writing tools. In addition, I have conducted research on how online tools have been used by teachers and students in emergency remote teaching settings, as well as in blended and hybrid contexts.
Furthermore, I also have a background in philosophy and have created courses that make use of philosophy and thought experiments for the teaching of critical thinking skills.
