    In 2015-2016, I co-taught MODL304 "Terror Remembered: Representing Traumatic Histories in Latin America, Europe and China" together with Prof Eve Rosenhaft (the convenor) and Prof Clair Taylor. My lectures for this module focused on two topics: 1. Nanjing Massacre in the (Second) Sino-Japanese War; 2. Chinese Children in the Caste System in the Cultural Revolution. In 2014-2017, I co-taught MODL311 Advanced Translation. My lectures for this module focus on two topics: 1. The translator's visibility and invisibility: cultural hegemony in the translation world; 2. New tech in visual-audio translation.

    I am co-supervising four PGR students as the following:
