Leveraging my extensive pedagogical expertise in curriculum development, teacher training, and English language instruction, garnered from working across diverse geographic regions spanning the United States, the United Kingdom, the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia, I bring to bear a comprehensive skill set that spans a broad spectrum of educational con- texts. My competencies encompass the development of curricula for teach- ing English, Spanish, and French as foreign languages, as well as a nuanced understanding of instructional design that is responsive to the needs of host country national, immigrant, refugee, and service provider popula- tions. As a multilingual scholar, proficient in at least four foreign lan- guages, namely Spanish, Jordanian and Moroccan Arabic, French, and Sinhala, I offer a distinctive and invaluable perspective to the education ecosystem.

My linguistic dexterity empowers me to cultivate pedagogical environments that are inclusive, culturally responsive, and attuned to the cognitive and affective needs of diverse learners.

More than 25 years of experience teaching English as a Second Language at home (the United States) and abroad (Sri Lanka, Morocco, Canada, Jordan, and the United Kingdom)
