On Being a Scrappy and Creative Teacher with Tracey Jones
Today our guest is Dr. Tracey Jones, clinical assistant professor at Baylor, specializing in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and bilingual education. Dr. Jones’ teaching career spans 25 years and various contexts, including high school ESOL, Spanish, and English, Modern languages at the college level, and English for International Students in Baylor’s Global Gateway Program. Her areas of research interest include second language acquisition, bilingual and dual language education, TESOL methodology, Spanish language teaching methodology, Spanish for Heritage Speakers and community engagement. Her work explores connecting university students to their local communities, specifically in and through the Spanish language.
We are delighted to Dr. Jones on the show to discuss how K12 teaching influences her approach to college teaching, what language acquisition has to say about learning more broadly, the learning benefits of connecting college students to the community, and much more.
