With 23 years of experience teaching English composition, reading, and literature to a diverse array of university students, both in the USA and in the Middle East, I bring enthusiasm and an enduring love of teaching to the classroom. In my role as Director of the Writing Center, I work to create a dynamic learning environment rooted in the principles of collaborative learning. I train and direct peer educators to work with students on all stages of the writing and revision process.
