Personal profile
I have worked as an English language teacher for over fifteen years within different educational institutions in the UK, China and Turkey, teaching EAP, ESOL and EFL. I started teaching at the UNNC in the Centre for English Language Education in September 2017 and moved to the School of English in August 2018. My PhD study, which I completed in September 2016, examined the language attitudes and teaching beliefs of British-South-Asian English language teachers.
