I’m a teacher educator, teacher-researcher and materials writer passionate about inclusive, quality, evidence-based practice. Pronunciation and phonology are core specialisms (alongside reflective teacher development, EdTech, LGBTQI+ inclusion, beginners, YLs, and adult literacy) nurtured through Delta, classroom research, current MA TESOL and co-founding TDSiG-Local ‘DIY-CPD’ initiative: Brighton Language Teachers.

I’ve cooperated with a number of schools and academic institutions, as well as start-ups and corporations within the domain of educational technologies, (mobile-assisted) pronunciation training and AI-based speech pedagogy and assessment, also through unpolish.pl.
