I enjoy working with teachers as much as I enjoy working with students. I am available to present workshops in schools and universities on various topics pertaining to language proficiency and cultural competence. School-based, on-site workshops are a great opportunity to work on specific departmental and district-wide language teaching goals. I can craft an individualized workshop to fit your needs or build on the workshops that I present at state, regional and national conferences.
