I hold a BA degree in languages (majored in English, German, and Russian), an Honors Degree in English and an MA in Medieval English, from the University of South Africa. I am multilingual, speaking fluent English, German, Polish and Afrikaans, with knowledge of Russian and basic French.
At the turn of the millennium, I followed my husband, to settle in the Middle East, where we are still living to date.
I have been a teacher of Rhetoric and Composition for 13 years, instructing first at the American University in Dubai and since Fall 2006 at the American University of Sharjah, U.A.E.
I write on issues related to sociolinguistics, education, women's studies, composition and sociology.
