Teaching​

​

Learning and using languages changes our brains, and, in the face of a constant digital onslaught, it gives us back some control over our own bodies and lives. Growing up bilingual and having lived my whole life in multilingual contexts, I love to accompany people on their language learning journeys. 

​

Since 2021, I have been doing this at the University of Sheffield's Modern Languages Teaching Centre, where I am the Co-ordinator of Slavonic Languages and University Teacher of Russian. I also co-lead the Hub for Heritage Languages and Multilingualism, which organises events and workshops for multilingual educators and anyone who is interested.

 

I'm a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (SFHEA).​

​

I've previously taught language and literature at the University of Toronto, the University of Missouri, Volga State University of Technology, and the University of Tyumen. ​
