International Academic Profile

China

Part of an international academic trajectory across France, the United Kingdom, and China.

Language learning, academic development, and cross-cultural research

China has played a central role in my academic and personal development, connecting advanced language learning with research in language education, applied linguistics, and AI-assisted learning.

Language Journey

Chinese as study and perspective

Chinese became both a language of study and a way to understand language learning from another perspective.

My interest in Chinese began before China became part of my academic path. Learning Chinese as a foreign language involved moving from beginner to advanced level through tones, characters, pronunciation, and cultural meaning. That experience continues to inform how I think about language learning and research.

Academic Experience

From Wuhan to Shanghai

A long-term academic trajectory shaped by Chinese language study and research.

My connection with China includes an exchange year in Wuhan during undergraduate studies, advanced Chinese language learning, and a current PhD trajectory at Shanghai International Studies University. This path brings together language education, applied linguistics, and questions about AI-assisted learning.

Research Environment

Chinese higher education

Research in China offers a different academic environment for multilingual and intercultural questions.

Studying and researching in China provides access to Chinese higher education, applied linguistics, language policy, and language education from a situated perspective. It also supports work on multilingual and intercultural research across different learning contexts.
