I hold a Ph.D degree in Linguistics from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, followed by three post-doctorates, one at Ben-Gurion University and two at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Before joining the English for Academic Purposes Unit at Sami Shamoon College of Engineering, I’ve been teaching Linguistics in English, and English for Academic Purposes at various academic institutes since 2009. My field of expertise is language meaning, both semantic and pragmatic, with an emphasis on English conversational dynamics
