Language teaching is important, fascinating and constantly changing. I have been working on this my whole life, as a language teacher and as a teacher trainer with students, as a coach/trainer with teachers and as a consultant with schools. And also as a researcher with colleagues at home and abroad. I also give lectures and write articles and blogs and I’m active in several (inter)national professional networks. See here more details of my professional activities.

With the rise of the internet and digital tools and platforms, the use of language to communicate, enjoy and learn has changed a lot in the last two decades. That’s why I’m focussing on Digital Literacies and language education over the last decade and a half. I’m supporting teachers and teacher teams, schools, teacher training colleges, (educational) companies and professional networks on implementing digital literacy in the curriculum, at home and abroad. And do some research also.
In 2017, I was officially declared as a Pioneer Digital Literacy, in the first edition of Digital Literacy Handbook/ Handboek Digitale geletterdheid, published by Kennisnet, the public organisation for Education & ICT in the Netherlands. The Handbook also contains an interview with me, in Dutch, about digital literacy and the role of language teaching.
