My name is Kawthr Khalifeh. I am female. I was born in Syria but am of Palestinian origin. I got all my grades from Syria. I got a BA in English and two diplomas in Education. I began working as an instructor for teaching English for specific purposes in 1975. I went back to school in 1984 and got my master's degree in education in 1990. Then I was promoted to work as a senior academic English Instructor at UNRWA/DTC in Syria. I also was appointed to give lectures in several colleges at Damascus University, including the faculty of education, mass media, etc. In 2008, I got my doctorate degree. I was forced to leave Syria due to the crisis. Currently, I am a resident of the USA, living with my brother and his family in Forest, Virginia.
