BIOGRAPHY
I am a teacher and researcher with experience in teaching English Linguistics, English Literature, and Communication Skills. I got my early education from Rangers Public School Fort Abbas. I completed my Bachelor's degree from IUB Bahawalpur in 2017, then did MA in English Literature from BZU Multan in 2019 and completed M.Phil in English Linguistics from IUB Bahawalpur in 2023. After my M.Phil, I worked as a visiting lecturer at IUB Bahawalpur for six months and as a permanent lecturer at TIMES University Multan for one year. I joined The University of Chenab as a full-time lecturer on 24th February 2025 and have been working here since then. My research is related to Exploring ESL Learners’ Listening Comprehension Problems, Their Corresponding Factors, and Strategies for Developing Listening Proficiency.
