About Me
I am an Associate Professor of English Language Education in Thailand. Currently, I work for Vongchavanitkul University in Nakhon Ratchasima. Prior to that I was Associate Professor of English Language Studies at Suranaree University of Technology, also in Nakhon Ratchasima.
Developing New Directions in Language Education
My research takes me to the leading edge of language education. With a continuing interest in Task-Based Learning, I am now investigating new areas such as Precision Language Education and Rhizomatic Language Learning.
I am vitally interested in listening and reading comprehension, both skills of central relevance to language-learning. Listening in particular is under-researched.
I am heavily involved in Technology-Enhanced Language Learning and Artificial Intelligence in education.
The future belongs to AI and technology-based educational research.
My Objectives in Language Education
Excellence in Learning
It is imperative that we improve English proficiency levels in Thailand. To do that requires a better understanding of how learning works. We are still making new discoveries.
Excellence in Teaching
On the basis of our discoveries in learning, we can construct new, more effective and personalized learning environments where students can thrive and be succsessful.
