Associate Chair, Director of Undergraduate Programs, Department of English

My research has long focused on issues implicated in the learning of English as an additional language among adult immigrant learners. These issues include identity, ideology, power relations, and agency. My current research is now focused on similar issues as they relate to language teachers, with particular attention paid to the role of emotions in teaching practice.
