Wilson DouceMy name is Wilson Douce. For the last 27 years, I have been involved in education. I began in my home country: in 1991, I graduated from the Normal School (Teachers' Training School) in Foreign Language Instruction (English, Spanish, and French) and n my native language, Haitian Creole. Then, after receiving a certification and diploma (Bachelor's) from the State University of Haiti in Foreign Language Instruction, I entered the Department of Linguistics, where I completed four years of coursework (a second Bachelor's). In 1996, I entered Stony Brook University in New York, USA, and completed my MATESOL in 1998. In 2008, I returned for a second Master's in Liberal Arts and an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Educational Computing. Later, I completed a third Master's in Hispanic Language and Literature and attained an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Educational Leadership. Currently, I am enrolled in a doctoral research program in Applied Linguistics at Aston University, UK. For seven years, I worked in Haiti as a successful EFL and Spanish teacher in seven different public and private high schools and, for one year, as a French literature teacher. I taught Haitian Creole in many international institutions, such as the United Peace Corps, United Nations, Organization of American States (OAS), Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, and many more. Moreover, for three years, I worked as an Assistant Director at a private religious school (Institution Emmanuel) and served as the Director of their evening literacy program. I worked as a Haitian Creole translation consultant for BOCES and New York State Education Department (NYSED) from 2000-2003. For the last twenty-two years, I have been teaching ESL/ENL in two different districts-Wyandanch and Huntington-in Long Island. Read More Read Less
