Currently, I teach Basic English language classes and English for Specific Purposes which at times may include English for Communication Studies and English for Business Communication at South East European University (SEEU) in Tetovo, Republic of Macedonia. I have also taught classes such as Human Resources Management and Marketing Communications. I was recently admitted in a PhD program at SEEU and will be doing my PhD in Rhetoric. I am the chief editor of the international journal of teaching and learning titled Talking About Learning which is published at SEEU.
During my Masters program in Professional Communication at IPFW I got equipped with sufficient knowledge in both theory and practice in the field of communication studies. I especially enjoyed the applied focus of the program and that the program was created to fit to any career a student might want to pursue. This concentration provided an opportunity to practice the subject matter and engage in real world projects with organizations, both inside and outside of campus. The overall experience during my studies in the US was life changing; it not only affected my learning and teaching, but it completely changed the way I see the world today.
My graduate teaching assistantship at the Department of Communication at IPFW provided me with a solid opportunity to get to know both the student culture as well as the organizational culture. That has provided me with sufficient comfort in both my teaching career and my participation in organizational life. I must mention that the openness and closeness of the academic and administrative staff at the Department of Communication have left a memorable impression that I will carry on with me wherever life takes me.
