세부내용
◆Educational Background
I obtained my first degree in General Linguistic from the University of Arizona in Tucson, USA. I then received an M.Phil. and Ph.D. from the University of Dublin,Trinity College, in the Republic of Ireland in the areas of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics respectively. My Ph.D. investigated the lexical systems of L2 English users from a cognitive, neurological perspective and I continue to work in these areas.
In Sookmyung I teach a wide variety of courses in the areas of linguistic theory, language learning, and language teaching across a range of different programs.
◆Teaching Experience
I have more than 25 years teaching experience having taught linguistics, applied linguistics, language, and language pedagogy courses in Germany, Singapore, and South Korea. I have also been involved with Sookmyung TESOL in all its various guises since its inception.
◆Research Experience
My research interests, following the highly varied tenor of my teaching duties, also show a high degree of variability, but center on investigating language and language learning from a functional systems approach. Essentially, I am interested in the question of how language works and feel the best way to examine this is through the use and development of the system. This focuses on multilingual systems and how languages are learned and used across a variety of situations. More particularly, in my research I look at lexis as the central core of language from a cognitive perspective.
