Betsy Hall is a Global Professor and Coordinator in the Foundations Writing Program at Ocean University of China in Qingdao, where she has served since 2021. She brings extensive experience from over sixteen years of teaching writing, language, and literary studies in U.S. colleges and universities, having held leadership roles such as Writing Center Director, Assistant Writing Program Director, and First-Year Experience Program Director.
Her educational background includes an M.A. in English from the University of Illinois (2002) and a Cambridge CELTA certification (2018), which strengthened her expertise in English language teaching. She moved abroad in 2018, teaching EFL and editing translated texts across multiple European countries including Czechia, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Italy.
Her research and professional interests center on composition studies, writing assessment, and pedagogical strategies for first-year and EFL writers. Her work has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Assessing Writing and CEA Forum, indicating a strong commitment to advancing writing instruction in diverse academic contexts.
The publications in Assessing Writing and CEA Forum suggest a thematic focus on writing evaluation, curriculum design, and first-year composition, with implications for both domestic and international writing programs. Her recent work appears to bridge U.S.-based writing program models with global EFL contexts, particularly in East Asia.
