关于我的

我一直喜欢其他语言. 作为在苏格兰长大的孩子, I remember spending some late nights listening to Radio Luxembourg with my grandmother. 我们俩一个字也听不懂, 但她总是说, “You need to learn to speak other languages so you understand what they’re saying!” It is that desire to understand and communicate with people from other cultures that has continued to make me want to learn languages and know other cultures.

Having studied 法国 and Italian (along with some Latin and Spanish) in school, I came to the U.S. to complete an undergraduate degree in 法国 at a small, residential liberal arts university not too different from SU. While I was in college, I was able to participate in a semester and two summer programs in Italy. These experiences created in me a love for Italy and all things Italian (not to mention an even greater love for the woman who would become my wife!). 事实上, my wife and I went on to spend two years living in Padova (Padua) Italy, 在哪里, 在其他活动中, 我开始了我未来的教学生涯.

现在, 在州立大学任教, I get to share my passion for Italy with my students, and hopefully inspire them also to explore new languages and cultures just as I did.

研究领域

Principal areas of research are (1) second language acquisition, with particular interest in the effects of formal instruction on the acquisition of Italian; (2) language teaching methodology, 特别是基于内容的教学(CBI), and the effectiveness of CBI in the foreign language learning context; and by extension (3) the teaching of Italian language and culture in general. Ultimately, my research seeks to connect second language acquisition theory and language instruction.
