Language Blog

Lizzy On Language: A current work-in-progress, and place to compile my ongoing personal research. I will be covering an array of linguistic topics accessible public.  

 

Research

My personal research interests revolve around socio-linguistics, linguistic globalization, internet English vernacular, historical and evolving English, and using multi-modal and common interest internet communities as English-teaching pedagogy.

 

Teaching

I am currently teaching English as a Second language at Kansas City Kansas Community College to adults in the greater KCK metro. I previously studied Psychology of Second Language Acquisition,  TESOL Teaching Methods and Theories during my graduate studies, which are incorporated in my teaching philosophy.

Follow me in my journey as I research modern applications of language science and investigate what it means to be a language teacher in the 21st-century.
