Over the past 11 years, I have taught a variety of courses in Linguistics at both the undergraudate and graduate level. My main goal as an instrucor of these Linguistic courses is to get students to view the study of language as a empirical science, and to instruct them to think critically and actively about systematic patterns of language. While most of the courses I teach are in my area of research expertise (Syntax), I have also taught related courses including, courses in: Typology, Phonology, Morphology, Language and Mind, and Field Methods.
