I have been teaching English for Academic Purposes in China since 2010, having worked for Coventry University and Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University before starting at The University of Nottingham Ningbo China in September 2014. Previously I taught Business English and ESOL in Birmingham, UK, and General English for four years in Japan.

My MSc focused on the language of English-medium undergraduate study. I am interested in  the use of Corpus Linguistics to investigate written and spoken academic English to inform teaching.
