Teaching Summary

As a Teaching Associate in Applied Linguistics, I teach in the following modules:

Before joining the University of Nottingham I taught linguistics and Spanish language modules in the University of East Anglia, the University of Edinburgh, the Modern Language Centre (King's College London), and the University of Roehampton.

• Linguistics: discourse analysis, pragmatics, semantics and philosophy of language.
• Spanish language: I have taught across all levels, Spanish language modules and institution wide language programs, as well as Spanish for business.

As part of my current appointment, I collaborate on the project Coronavirus Discourses: Linguistic Evidence for Effective Health messaging

I also collaborate on the project "Did the defendant use a gun? The philosophical foundations and practical consequences of applying corpus analysis in legal interpretation" at the University of Reading.
