I am Associate Professor at the Faculty of Education, Memorial University. My research covers TESL/TEFL, academic writing, migration experiences, and identity construction in additional language contexts. My current projects focus on newcomer (immigrant, refugee, and international student) language, social, settlement, career issues in Canada. I also look at EAP writing instruction and teacher education at tertiary level in China. I teach and supervise in these areas.
