Biography
Sarah Rilling (PhD, Northern Arizona University, 1998) is a professor in the area of teaching English as a second/additional language (TESL) within the Department of English. She teaches courses in applied linguistics, including language study (Descriptive Grammar), language policy (Sociolinguistics in Schooling), language curriculum (English for Specific Purposes), and language pedagogy (Practicum). Rilling's research and publications focus on inquiry and action in language teaching in an age of standards and nativization processes in modern language contact. Administrative work for English has resulted in licensure and endorsement programs in TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages) and a Bachelor of Arts in TESL.
