2. the ability to reflect on, critically analyze, and evaluate my own teaching practices;
3. the ability to articulate a philosophy of language teaching grounded in current language and learning theories;
4. an understanding of the complex social, cultural, political, and institutional factors that affect language teaching and students' language learning;
5. knowledge of research and research methods for studying language teaching and learning;
6. knowledge of the teaching field (English);
7. participation in collaborative projects with others.
