Staci Hauschild works as an English Language Fellow in Dili, Timor-Leste, one of the newest countries in the world. She focuses her time on educational development via teacher training.
When she received her Bachelor's of Arts in journalism and environmental sciences from Kansas State University, Staci never imagined combining her background in environmental studies with a career as an educator. However, as a TEFL volunteer with the Peace Corps in Cape Verde, she became interested in educational development and began focusing her career on English-language education.
Later, while earning her Master's of Arts in teaching English as a second language from Northern Arizona University, Staci learned about content-based instruction and began developing environmental resources for ESL/EFL teachers. She has since given presentations and written articles with her colleagues on how to incorporate environmental topics into the English-language classroom.
In addition to teaching in Cape Verde and Timor-Leste, Staci has also taught English at Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane, Morocco and Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas (the Little Apple) and worked as both a teacher and a teacher mentor at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Arizona.
In addition to content-based instruction, Staci is interested in program administration, teacher training, and curriculum development. She has traveled in Eastern and Western Europe, West Africa, the Caribbean, Central America, and Southeast Asia. Staci speaks Cape Verdean Creole and conversational Portuguese, and is currently learning Tetun, the lingua franca of Timor-Leste.
Staci hopes that this website serves as a useful resource for educators interested in "greening" their classrooms while working to improve students' English-language skills. She intends to further develop this website, and welcomes suggestions or comments on how it can be improved.
Staci would like to thank the following people for evaluating and contributing many of the resources found on this site. Without them, this website would not exist. Thank you Andy Bucher, Jersus Colmenares, Carynn Davis, Elena Poltavtchenko, Dianna Sanchez, and Bushra Zaidi, and especially Dr. Fredricka Stoller, whose idea it was to "Green the English-language classroom."
