In 2020, I joined the Lebanese American University. I cover a range of English courses, including General English, Intensive English, Business English, English for Specific Purposes, Communication Skills, and Academic English. I have a strong passion for professional development and actively participate in workshops and collaborative initiatives, both at the institutions where I work and at the American Embassy.
