I teach a range of undergraduate and graduate courses in linguistics, as well as in other areas, based on sub-specialization and departmental programmatic needs. Also, I demonstrate a commitment to excellence in teaching and mentoring a diverse student population while working effectively with faculty, staff, and students across a wide range of disciplines. I contribute to teaching and course development at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as related activities such as the supervision of teaching practice, research advising, thesis supervision, developing a strong research agenda and maintaining a strong publication record, undertaking administrative and/or leadership roles while contributing to other service-related activities at the academic group or institution level, establishing partnerships with practitioners to explore avenues for research and teaching that will create an impact in the discipline and/or educational practice. • Manage courses ranging from developmental to advance analytical composition with an emphasis on critical thinking. • Participate in adjunct faculty professional development for greater understanding and involvement in the learning community. • Instruct students in the rhetoric and technique of writing for freshman composition. • Prepare and deliver lectures to undergraduate students on theoretical linguistics, applied linguistics, and translation. • Ensure that students who enter the course with a limited vocabulary graduate with the ability to converse at a comfortable level.
