ABOUT CURRENT WORK EDUCATION & TRAINING TEACHING RESEARCH PUBLICATIONS PRESENTATIONS

I am currently senior research associate at the Department of Linguistics and English Language (LAEL), Lancaster University.

My general research focus is on the development of corpus approaches to issues in descriptive, theoretical and applied linguistics − and expanding the role of corpus methodology in theoretically-oriented research. From a theoretical standpoint, I am interested in exploring the compatibility between construction grammar and lexical grammar. In particular, I am interested in modality and conditionals, as well as the use of corpus approaches to (critical) discourse studies and sociolinguistics, and the use of corpora in language education – mainly, pedagogical lexicogrammar and the analysis of learner language. I have also worked extensively in language teacher education and English language teaching.

I have published on the nature, techniques and applications of corpus linguistics, conditionals and modality, language teacher education and language teaching methodology – particularly on the role of language awareness. My h-index is 3 when measured by ISI Web of Knowledge and Scopus, and 10 when measured by Google Scholar Citations and Publish or Perish.
