Douglas Sewell
has been both a language teacher and teacher educator for almost 20 years. Currently a senior instructor at the Werklund School of Education, Douglas has previously taught both English and education programs in South Korea, China the UAE, and the UK. He completed his MA in TESOL with the University of Birmingham, UK and his Ph.D. in Education with the University of Leeds, UK. Douglas’ research interests focus on Self-Regulation of Language Learning among EFL / ESL learners, and by extension how to help learners become more effective in their studies across the curriculum. Derived from this, he is also quite interested in teacher self-regulation and hence how teachers can improve their own approaches through processes such as goal setting and self-re ection. Outside of the classroom, Douglas particularly enjoys skiing and mountain biking, as well as traveling and exploring new places and new cultures.
