Used to work as a lecturer in Linguistics in China, then opened my own language school. Got kicked out of China and came to Malaysia to work on Teacher Training Projects and finally as a lecturer in Sunway University. For the last two years I have been retired and mainly helping develop ideas to teach classes for refugees who cannot attend regular school and needed to learn online.
