Based in an online learning environment, my role as English course instructor is to introduce, guide, plan, stimulate, focus, motivate and tie together students' learning processes with a proactive approach. I provide teaching assistance to students both individually and collectively, monitoring their learning over the course of the semester. I address students' doubts, offer examples and further explanations, stimulate debates, encourage participation in forums, and provide personalized feedback to help students' learning processes. As a Course instructor I also engage in other activities related to the creation of learning resources.
