About this Blog

Teaching in Lebanon is a reflective space exploring the realities of learning, teaching, language, and life in a higher education context in Lebanon. The posts draw on classroom experience, emerging research, and the shifting educational landscape—covering topics such as pedagogy, student psychology, academic writing, sociocultural issues, and the growing influence of artificial intelligence on learning. This blog documents what it means to teach and learn in a country shaped by language diversity, crisis, resilience, and rapid technological change. It brings together observations from the classroom, commentary on global educational trends, and reflections on the challenges and possibilities facing students and educators in Lebanon today. My aim is simple: to think aloud about education, share insights, and contribute to a broader conversation on teaching and learning in Lebanon and beyond.
