My research interests include multilingualism and linguistic inclusivity in internationalized higher education as well as sustainable language teacher training. In my PhD entitled 'Multilingual students at monolingual universities: Language ideological debates about international students in Australia', I explored the representation English language proficiency and multilingualism in the Australian higher education context. I am part of the Language on the Move research group. As a teacher practitioner I am interested in linguistic inclusivity in curriculum design and assessment practices such as learning-oriented assessment.

I do not have the capacity to take on new research students.

I am the Course Lead of the Graduate Certificate of TESOL course and this involves looking after students on their teaching practice placements. I have strong ties with the Australian TAFE and ELICOS sectors as well as excellent relationships with the primary and high school education sector. I also teach and convene curriculum and assessment-related subjects in the Master of Applied Lingusitics and TESOL program.

I have taught TESOL and Applied Linguistics subjects at Macquarie University since 2015 and elsewhere since 2011. I have 20+ years of teaching experience in various teaching contexts both in Australia and overseas. This includes teaching ESL to young learners, adult migrants, corporate English language training and university direct entry courses, to mention a few. I have also been active in the field of language assessment design.
