I joined the Department of Linguistics & English Language in January 2003.

Along with my colleague Vicki Haslam, I look after the department's undergraduate students and am the main contact for Part I (first-year students) but welcome enquiries from all students within the department. Within my role as Part I Co-ordinator I also deal with all things relating to admissions to the department; undergraduate enquiries, UCAS applications, departmental open days etc.

Throughout the year I also co-ordinate the administration of the English for Academic Purposes (Study Skills) Programme (EAP) http://www.ling.lancs.ac.uk/study/eap/index.htm and also the International Summer Programme (ISP) http://www.ling.lancs.ac.uk/study/isp/index.htmwhich run between August and September each year. These programmes generally recruit 200+ international students so it is an extremely busy but very enjoyable time.

My office is open for student enquiries between 08.00 - 12.00 and 14.00 - 16.00, Monday to Friday.
