Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies language and language learning from several angles, including how people learn English as a foreign or second language, classroom practices and discrimination, and how learners' identities and accents shape their language experience. More recently, the work has shifted toward documenting contact between spoken Arabic and sign language in the Khuzestan region of Iran, looking at phenomena like code-switching, code-blending, negation, and grammatical convergence in bilingual and bimodal (spoken-and-signed) language use. This body of work would suit students interested in sociolinguistics, language teaching, or documentation of under-studied bilingual/sign language communities.
