Biography: I have recently finished my Honour's thesis which investigated print exposure and the reading skills of first and second language English speaking high schools students. Many important questions were raised, therefore I am continuing research on this topic for my Master's degree to better understand reading development in adolescents. I am also extremely interested in educational and remedial programs for first and second language English learners.Future Interests: Not available. |
