Background
I have been teaching English for almost 20 years in various institutional settings, spanning 8 countries. After working as a general English teacher in the early stages of my career, I moved into researching and teaching English for academic and specific purposes. For the past 6 years, I have been focusing on developing materials for specific academic fields.
