I offer one-to-one and group courses for business and general English. I also provide teacher training sessions on web 2.0 tools and Second Life in language education.
My key interests include learner motivation, encouraging learner autonomy, ICT and the use of Web 2.0 tools and Virtual Worlds in teaching and learning languages.
I have finished the one-year postgraduate programme MUVEnation ‘Teaching and learning with MUVEs’ funded by the EU and am enrolled in the MA in Educational Technology and TESOL at the University of Manchester.
