About

  • I hold a BA and MPhil from University College Dublin in medieval English, early Irish and Linguistics.
  • I returned to university teaching in 2016 after 30 years, in which I worked in software development (telecoms) and at the Bundessprachenamt as an English teacher (2008-16).
  • I lectured in medieval English at University College Dublin in 1978-79.
  • In 1980-81 I worked as an English teacher in Dortmund and I taught medieval English (as 'wissenschaftlicher Assistent') at the Freie Universität Berlin from 1982-87.
  • In 1996-1997 I taught courses in early Irish at the Humboldt-Universität.
