Teaching and supervision
I regularly teach a range of BA courses in the English Language and Culture programme. I have also taught sociolinguistics courses in other programmes at both BA (Linguistics) and MA level (Language and Society), as well as academic writing courses at BA level (Media Studies, Cognition, Language and Communication).
I am available to supervise BA and MA theses on a range of topics in English linguistics, with a preference for sociolinguistic and corpus-linguistic approaches. Please email me to discuss possible topics.
