MA Applied Linguistics and TESOL (Newcastle University)

BA (Hons) History and Politics (University of Northumbria)

I have taught EFL and EAP in different countries (South Korea, Australia, Hong Kong) for approximately 9 years. After completing my MA in Applied Linguistics and TESOL, I worked on pre-sessional courses aimed to prepare MA-level students for their studies. Most recently, I taught on various EAP modules at a university in Suzhou. In the classroom, I strive to create engaging lessons that allow students to express themselves.

Apart from teaching, I enjoy hiking, football, travelling, and playing guitar.

Undergraduate EAP courses

My research interests include conversation analysis, reflective practice, and student motivation
