I have been working at the department since August 1987, teaching mainly courses in translation and practical grammar at Engelsk grunnfag.

I have previous work experience from the secondary school system (from 1980).  I completed my Hovedfag thesis on the pragmatics of inversion in May 1983.

In periods until 1995 I taught English methodology and didactics at the teacher-training department (Appu/Unikom, now called PLP).

My fields of interest are foreign language teaching and learning, learning theories and English for Specific Purposes.
 

From 1996 and onwards I have been developing courses in English for specific purposes. The one currently being offered is English for Business and Administration. In connection with this course there is a one-week study trip.
