Taught first and second year English communication classes focusing on grammar, listening and speaking. Developed the curriculum and instructed beginner and intermediate TOEIC listening classes • Asked to implement a new classroom software system called "blackboard" but was given a very poor orientation on how to use it. Incrementally, increased use in class while learning new functions each time. The result was students used blackboard successfully for several homework assignments. Had to teach a summer class of housewives without materials. Used several websites to gather material on travel and related issues and put together a very small textbook for teachers to use with housewives in the future.
