After many re-writes and countless years in the making, I am happy to share my new article! In this piece, I talk about the acquisition of the anaphoric relations and binding constraints of complements that select subjunctive [1/5] tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

@childhoodruc @MarilisaJimenez ¡Bienvenida a RU-Camden! You'll love it here :) Let me know if there is anything I can do to help make the transition easier, although you've landed in a fantastic program. Greetings from a colleague in the World Langs department :)

As professors, we often hear pre/in-service teachers express their frustration about how difficult it is to bring innovation to curricula that leave very little room for change. The aim of this discussion is to show that innovation in K-12 lang teaching is indeed possible [2/3]

Native speakers have long been held as "the" benchmark for language proficiency. But are native speakers always "native-like"? We find that, even when processing a basic language feature, Spanish speakers' processing is highly variable 🔥Hot off the press! doi.org/10.1111/cogs.1…

We worked together and completed the translation of 8 documents that RTB uses when enrolling Spanish-speaking families in Camden. The students were thrilled to help, and it showed them their skills can help so many in the community! This is @Rutgers_Camden! #raptortude

Last week my advanced Spanish composition & conversation class completed their first community-engaged assignment! Everyone was excited (but also a little scared!) to be able to help our partner, Raise the Bar NJ, an NGO who works w/ families with children with disabilities [1/2]
