About
I specialize in academic writing for both native English speakers as well as secondary language speakers. I teach courses based on modeling and argumentative writing, with topics ranging from impact of the internet/anonymity on communication, influence of culture/language, and how the mind can be manipulated by external/internal factors. My research has been focused on communication, both written and spoken, and material/course development. Recent projects have included analysis of student support needs in writing classes, expectations across departments on what students can produce in their writings, insight into pronunciation patterns in English, and material development aimed at more fluent non-native English speaking.Sessions
