During my first year of graduate work I taught Latin 101 (both semesters) and graded Mythology (Greek 107) and Rome (Classics 215). This year I will teach Latin 101 and 201 in the Fall. I recently returned from Latin Summer Camp (as I call it), a Conversational Latin Seminar in Kentucky. I look forward to applying the skills I learned this summer in the classroom.

I'm thrilled to be in my fourth year teaching French here at UNM. I've greatly enjoyed teaching French to students in various environments over the past 15+ years, from The University of Texas at Austin (where I earned my M.A. in French Literature), to Albuquerque High School, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Central New Mexico Community College. I believe in creating a classroom environment that is rigorous and fun. We speak, listen to, read and write French, work hard, and have a good time. On se voit en classe!

Melissa Miller
Teaching Assistant

Bonjour! I am very grateful to have this opportunity to share my love of languages with others and to help them take the first step in learning French and acquainting themselves with French and francophone cultures. In the spring of 2008, I received a BS/BA in Mathematics and Languages from the University of New Mexico. I then spent a semester at the University of Tennessee where I studied French literature and tutored Calculus and beginning French. However, I decided to return to Albuquerque. This fall I began working on a MA in French literature here at UNM, as well as conducting French 101 classes. I strive to maintain a positive and challenging environment within the classroom, and I hope that many of my students will be inspired to continue in their French language studies after they leave my class.

The Fall semester of 2009 will be my first semester as Graduate student and TA. I'm very excited to have the opportunity to introduce students to the German language and culture in the German 101 classes I will be teaching. I lived in Germany for most of my life (in Wiesbaden), moved to Albuquerque in 2004 and graduated from UNM in 2008 with a BA in Psychology and German Studies. I'm very passionate about German language, culture, history, and people and hope to encourage my students to continue their German language studies and travel to Germany.

David Hartwig - TA
David Hartwig
Teaching Assistant

After graduating from Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, I participated in an academic exchange program between MLU and UNM in 2007. Enchanted by New Mexico, I decided to enter the MA Program in Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies with a main focus on contemporary American and German Literature. I teach beginning and intermediate German classes at the FLL Department and ESL classes at UNM. My areas of interest and research include: post-1945 German and American Literature, Wendeliteratur, Memory and Identity Construction, Narratology and the Age of Goethe and Schiller.

Teaching Assistant

The fall 2009 semester will be my first semester as a TA and Graduate student and as someone born and raised in/ near the city of Hamburg, Germany I look forward to sharing much of what I know about German language and culture with those choosing to study German at UNM.

My undergraduate degree is a BA in secondary education (social studies/history as the major and in addition licensed for German and ESL). I did my student teaching during the Spring 2009 semester in an 8th grade U.S. history class in Santa Fe. I have also done observations and some student teaching in Las Cruces for NM history & math and I have worked as a tutor (mostly math) at the Santa Fe Community College.
