Teachers College, Columbia University, USA
MA LLL Visiting Professor, 2010-2011
"I am truly impressed with the quality and the design of the MA LLL program. The diversity of the students is compelling and I think that the selection of students represents an excellent mix of learners. The students are former lecturers, administrators, researchers, and professionals from a wide array of countries and contexts. I found teaching and interacting with them personally rewarding. Likewise, the faculty coordinators and professors assigned to the MA LLL program in the three partner universities are committed to the program, are renowned scholars in the field, and are devoted mentors to the MA LLL students."
