Hi, I’m Arockia Licy Monika C, an aspiring Assistant Professor of English with CELTA certification from the British Council. I design learner-centered CLT-based lessons for A2–B2 CEFR adult learners and deliver both online and offline instruction, with a focus on real-world language use and learner autonomy. I enjoy integrating graphic novels and visual texts to enrich vocabulary, comprehension, and cultural engagement in inclusive, dynamic classrooms. My academic work centers on graphic novels and spatial studies, including a PhD in English and Cultural Studies at CHRIST (Deemed to be University). I explore visual semiotics and cultural nuances, socio-spatial research, and interdisciplinary methods. I also have a track record of teaching across universities and volunteering in education, with experience developing inclusive virtual classrooms and innovative assessment strategies.
