Currently, I am an assistant professor in the department of Applied Linguistics- College of Languages - Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University. I am also the advisor to the university’s Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning. The courses I have been teaching include: Phonology, Phonetics, Psycholinguistics and supervising graduation projects.
Since I obtained a PhD in linguistics from George Mason University, I resumed my position as a faculty member in the department of Applied Linguistics. I was appointed as the department head from 2019-2020, then vice dean of the college of Languages for graduate studies and research from 2020- 2022. During that time, I supervised the college’s graduate programs, its research center and our scientific journal (Critical Studies in Language and Literature). I also oversaw faculty members currently enrolled in national and international scholarships.
As of January 2022, I am the advisor to the university’s Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning. I am very excited to start my current position as it allows me to apply the knowledge and skills that I learned from my studies at George Mason. In addition to the knowledge I gained from the MA and Phd in Linguistics programs, I was fortunate enough to gain professional experience in teaching from the graduate TESOL courses and my TAship. My entire experience at GMU has proved to be invaluable to further my career in higher education.
