Research InterestsSociology of education – autobiography and symbolic control; school choice and educational trajectories; English-medium education and social differentiation; equality of access to higher education
English language teaching – integrated language arts;?ELT resources
Teacher education – initial teacher preparation; teacher professional learning
?With my background in English language education and the sociology of education, my work sets out to argue that the investigation of crucial issues of English-language acquisition, mostly drawing on theories of language learning and teaching, can be usefully contextualised in the sociology of education for a more theoretical perspective.? I am particularly interested in issues around English and social differentiation – the unequal basis and consequences of differential access to English and the local struggles around English in its local contexts against the assumption of English as neutral, natural and beneficial (i.e. the discourse of English as an international language).? This captures the essence of my earlier doctoral work.? I am equally interested in how second-language learners communicate meanings in different modes of representation by locating them in a network of social relations in Hong Kong’s school system.? I am also concerned to promote the contribution of literature to education in Hong Kong, where, I feel, the overwhelmingly instrumental approach to the study of English is damaging.? This was, in part, fostered by my work for the MA degree which included modules concerned with literature in education, with special reference to cross-cultural perspectives and feminism.? My recent projects include autobiography and symbolic control, alumni mentorship in a community of practice, as well as service learning for initial teacher preparation.

I was awarded a first-class Bachelor’s honours degree in education and an MA (with distinction) in English language education from the University of London. Then sweet chance led my steps to researching in the sociology of education with the late Emeritus Professor Basil Bernstein ? a scholar of enterprise, shrewd and swift ? who stayed me in inspired indulgence in 10 Woburn Square. A growing interest in sociology further led me to study for an MPhil degree at the University of Cambridge, where I had the great pleasure of researching with Professor Robert M Blackburn, Fellow of Clare College. My years abroad marked a period of warmth, seriousness and endurance in empirical field research, which is what I count as a gain from good old England.
‘And let me live those years again when I could still mature and grow, when songs gushed up as from a spring that ceaselessly renewed itself within, when all the world was veiled in mist and every bud concealed a miracle, when I gathered up a thousand flowers that richly decked the slopes and fields – then I had nothing, yet I had enough: …’ (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)
‘Much is there waits you we have missed; Much lore we leave you worth the knowing, Much, much has lain outside our ken: Nay, rush not: time serves: we are going, …’ (Thomas Hardy)
‘Away she hurried, not beautiful, not supremely brilliant, but filled with something that took the place of both qualities – something best described as a profound vivacity, a continual and sincere response to all that she encountered in her path through life.’? (Edward Morgan Forster)
