My research interests broadly centre on (1) secondary Mandarin education, (2) heritage/community language education, (3) classroom discourse and interaction, (4) multilingualism in Southeast and East Asia, and (5) the teaching and acquisition of Asian languages, including Cantonese and Malay as well as Asian Englishes. I welcome doctoral applications from Research Postgraduate students interested in these research areas, with particular focus on multilingual Asian contexts.
