I work as a private educational consultant in TESOL/Applied Linguistics. From 2009-2012, I was a Senior Lecturer at the University of Southern California and a Professor of TESOL at Soka University of America from 2007-2009. Prior to this, I worked for 27 years at the University of California, Los Angeles as Associate Director of UCLA’s World Languages and Cultures; Lecturer in Applied Linguistics; and Academic Coordinator of UCLA's ESL Service Courses. I am the co-author of several English language textbooks and the co-author/co-editor of numerous professional texts including: New Ways in Content-Based Instruction (TESOL, 1997); New Ways in ESP (TESOL, 1998); Content-Based Second Language Instruction (Heinle & Heinle, 1989; University of Michigan Press, 2003); Heritage Language Education (Routledge, 2007); Teaching Pronunciation (Cambridge University Press, 1996, 2010); The Linguistic Structure of Modern English (John Benjamins, 2010), Teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language (National Geographic, 2014); and The Content-Based Classroom (Longman, 1997; University of Michigan Press, 2017). For twelve years I co-edited The CATESOL Journal. I have conducted international teacher training in Afghanistan, Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Bahrain, Bolivia, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Curaçao, Dominican Republic, Greece, Guatemala, India, Iraq, Israel, Kazakhstan, Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Lebanon, Libya, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritius, Mexico, Morocco, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nepal, Panama, Paraguay, The Philippines, Qatar, Senegal, Singapore, South Africa, Syria, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, The U.A.E., Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. I am a frequent presenter at national/international conferences. I recently completed a guest-edited issue of The CATESOL Journal on evidence-based pronunciation teaching.
