Formerly at Lancaster University

Research overview

In my reserach I focus on second language acquisition. I am particularly interested in cognitive processes of memory and attention underlying language learning. I wrote my thesis on task complexity and interaction during task-based L2 performance at the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands). As a post-doctoral researcher at Mannheim University (Germany) I focused on preschool teachers' language training competences. Currently, I work on projects on alignment during task-based computer mediated communication and on second language writing processes and their relation to text quality. In all those projects I make use of our eye tracking lab.

Research Interests

  • Second language acquisition (SLA)
