Better support for EAL children

Cécile De Cat, c'est ici

I'm a professor of linguistics at the University of Leeds, UK.
My research explores the following themes:
- Understanding individual differences in language acquisition and language maintenance (due to the interaction of linguistic, experiential, and cognitive factors)
- Quantifying bilingualism (see Q-BEx)
- Assessing language outcomes in children and adolescents (especially pragmatic competence)
- Evaluating language complexity and tracking its acquisition
- Identifying cross-linguistic influences in advanced L2 speakers
- Exploring the interplay between syntax and pragmatics (including both information structure and discourse competence)
- Dabbling in experimental syntax.
I have a keen interest in statistical modelling and data visualisation using R. I'm always interested in developing partnerships with teachers to enhance research-informed approaches to education.
