Background
Before joining the Language Centre team full-time, I was teaching part-time at both Aalto University and the University of Helsinki. Between 2000-2011, I taught full-time in the private sector in the Uusimaa area. I have also owned and operated my own language teaching company since 2006. As well, I ran a mobile phone app start-up company from 2008-2010. Since 2005, I have also freelanced on different projects in the field of marketing as a copywriter and brand consultant. My teaching focus at the university level has been in spoken communicative skills (Presentation skills, Argumentation skills, Debating, etc.), integrated English (CLIL), academic English, and business English. My research interests include Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), Critical Discourse Analysis, Systemic Functional Grammar, Rhetoric, Sociolinguistics, Multimodal analysis, Genre Analysis, and Motivation.
