Teaching
I generally teach classes in General, English, German, and Interdisciplinary Linguistics and in individual classes all over the world. My focus in these classes lies in the comprehensive analysis of multimodal artefacts based on theoretical and methodological developments. This often includes a general media studies perspectives which I try to approach from a linguistic and (contemporary) semiotic viewpoint.
I have more than 10 years of teaching and supervision experience at Bachelor's and Master's level, and my teaching record shows a variety of courses in several fields in the humanities (including linguistics, communication and media studies, semiotics).The list below indicates the main courses I gave in the last few years.
