Department of English

An associate professor of English, Robert Sullivan believes his role as a teacher is to guide his students, and that “each student brings a wealth of experiences, relationships and ideas to the classroom.”

Since he began at Manoa in 2003, Sullivan feels his teaching is greatly helped by the practical experiences he draws on as a widely published author and editor in several genres, including creative non-fiction, poetry and fiction.

One colleague noted that he is “an inspired and captivating performer and teacher who has close and charismatic rapport with his classes and audiences.”

The University of Hawai‘i at Manoa Chancellor’s Citation for Meritorious Teaching recognizes Manoa faculty members who have made significant contributions to teaching and student learning.
