Teaching

My commitment to diversity and inclusion is grounded in my teaching, mentoring, and tutoring experiences with diverse student bodies at Hamilton College, UCLA, Tokyo Gakugei University, and National Taiwan University. My teaching emphasizes a multiplicity of perspectives and modalities by deconstructing the monopolies of knowledge. 

I teach courses in linguistic anthropology, conversation analysis, media studies, and the anthropology of play, ranging from advanced seminars with labs to lecture-based courses. My classes place a strong emphasis on hands-on, small-scale ethnographic projects and lab-based learning, fostering students' critical engagement with the intersections of language, culture, and social practice.
