My teaching bridges neuroscientific research with higher education and professional teacher training.
At the university level, I deliver Master-level seminars, such as at the Cognitive Science Hub at the University of Vienna, focusing on the neurobiology of language, bilingualism, and cognitive models of language representation.
Complementing my academic courses, I design and lead evidence-based professional development workshops for educators, including specialised training for Geneva’s Department of Public Instruction (DIP) on the neuroscience of vocabulary acquisition and early childhood screen education.
All the materials for the class are openly available.
