Field of work

I am interested in English linguistics, multilingualism, sociolingustics and language learning. My PhD-project focuses on the development of metalinguistic awareness in the early stages of formal language learning, as well as and the conncetions between metalinguistic awareness, multilinugalism and English competence.
