Post Secondary Experience
I completed my post secondary education at the University of Alberta. I studied there for all three of my degrees over 9 years. During my study period there, I worked as a Teacher’s Assistant in an educational psychology class. Also, I worked as a Research Assistant for Leila Ranta during my master’s program. 

Teaching Philosophy
I believe that instructor feedback and student motivation, practice and participation are key to successfully learning a language. I am interested in grammar instruction methods, task-based teaching, and student led learning.
