School of Engineering Instructor of English as a Foreign Language
Teaching and Research Fields
My research on special and additional behavioral, social, and emotional education needs, inclusive education, and
diversity in teaching and learning within the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) context focuses on how to
create effective language learning environments for students with varying language abilities, backgrounds, and
needs. It looks at difficulties that can be found diverse classrooms, including learners who may face challenges
such as learning disabilities, mental health challenges, ADHD, illness, or other barriers while learning
English, and on developing strategies to support all students to do their best in the classroom. It also looks at
understanding diverse learning styles and participation modes in the classroom. This includes adapting teaching
methods, using assistive technology, incorporating culturally responsive materials, and fostering inclusive
classroom interactions so that all learners have equal opportunities to succeed in language learning.
