My English communication classes create opportunities for collaborative learning through task-based activities and role plays. Technology-enhanced instruction and self-study help to facilitate a student-centered learning environment where language skills are developed and strengthened so that they can be used in realistic ways and to achieve communication goals that are of immediate relevance to students. Emphasis is placed on acquiring and strengthening productive communication skills.

EFL Writing Fluency; EFL Oral Fluency

One recent project partially replicates a study on topic selection and its impact on second language learners�� written fluency. At the same time, it seeks to understand student perceptions of quick-write activities and topic selection. The study indicated that students seem to write more fluently on self-selected topics, but that they prefer to write on teacher-selected topics. Student reactions to the quick-write activities were generally positive, with students indicating that the activities helped them to improve their writing. My most recent project critically reviews recent literature in second language oral fluency measurement and identifies a gap in the research for a future study.
