丁香园AV

doctoral student in the Faculty of Education

I am a Ph.D. candidate doing research on LGBTQ+ immigrants' English learning experiences in non-conventional educational settings in the Metro Vancouver Area. My training is in applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, queer theory, and migration studies. My dissertation projects focus on revealing how dominant ideologies of race, sexuality, and language impact racialized queer learners' access to language learning and exploring how they exert agency to refashion their relationship with the world to regain access.
