Teaching & supervision
I teach and supervise in Language Education and Language Didactics, with a focus on foreign, additional and multilingual language learning, TELL/CALL, digital literacies, online discourse, AI in education, informal language learning and language teacher education.
Teaching 2026–2027
Language didactics and language teacher education.
Content and Language Integrated Learning
Teaching in the Máster AICLE programme.
Teaching areas
My teaching is situated in Language Education and Language Didactics, understood as a broad field that connects linguistic knowledge, pedagogical design, classroom practice, digital communication, teacher education and contemporary literacy practices.
Language education and curriculum design
I teach courses on Language Didactics, curriculum design, communicative competence, lesson planning, classroom interaction, task design, mediation, assessment and pedagogical decision-making across foreign, additional and multilingual language education contexts.
Technology-enhanced language learning
My teaching addresses TELL/CALL, digitally mediated language learning, AI in education, digital feedback, online platforms, video, social media, mobile learning, multimodal resources and the pedagogical integration of intelligent and digital technologies.
Digital discourse, fandom and participatory cultures
I teach how online discourse, fandom, memes, video games, fan translation, social media, vlogging and participatory cultures can be understood as meaningful sites for language use, literacy development, identity work and pedagogical innovation.
Language learning, use and acquisition
My courses draw on applied linguistics, second/additional language learning, multilingualism, mediation, interculturality and critical language awareness to examine how languages are learned, used, taught and evaluated in diverse educational and digital contexts.
Initial and continuing teacher education
I work with future and practicing language teachers on pedagogical design, classroom research, reflective practice, innovation, digital competence, inclusion, assessment, lesson planning, practicum supervision and research-informed professional development.
EFL, SFL/ELE and multilingual language education
My teaching experience includes English as a foreign language, Spanish as a foreign language and broader multilingual language education. Rather than treating languages as isolated areas, I approach them through shared didactic, sociolinguistic, digital and pedagogical questions.
Pedagogical approach
My teaching is grounded in the idea that future language educators need to understand language learning as social, cultural, multimodal, critical and increasingly digitally mediated.
Research-informed teaching
From language practice to language pedagogy
I design teaching around situated tasks, reflective practice, authentic digital genres, collaborative production, critical analysis and pedagogical transfer. Students are encouraged to examine how language is used in classrooms, institutions and digital environments, and how those practices can be transformed into meaningful language learning opportunities.
Core principles
Language Didactics, critical digital literacies, social participation, multilingual awareness,
pedagogical creativity, reflective teacher education, TELL/CALL and responsible engagement with AI.
Supervision
I supervise undergraduate, master’s and doctoral work on Language Education, Language Didactics, applied linguistics, digital literacies, online discourse, informal learning, AI, fandom, TELL/CALL and language teacher education.
Doctoral researchers
My doctoral supervision includes work with Lu Li, Guowei Wu, Alba Paz-López and Esther Aguilera-Pérez.
Doctoral and master’s supervision
I am especially interested in supervising work on digitally mediated language learning, AI-mediated literacies, language teacher education, informal learning, online communities, fan practices, EFL, SFL/ELE, multilingual language education, TELL/CALL and contemporary literacy practices.
What I look for
Strong supervision projects usually connect a clear language education problem with a robust theoretical framework, carefully delimited data, ethical sensitivity, methodological coherence and a contribution to teaching, learning, language didactics or literacy research.
Possible supervision topics
These are indicative areas rather than fixed topics. Specific projects are shaped collaboratively depending on the student’s interests, context, data access and methodological preparation.
