Associate professor teaching at the Special Needs Teacher Education Programme. Main research interests are language, reading and writing difficulties.
I am working as an associate professor at the Department of Language studies. My main area of interest is reading difficulties in relation to oral language, writing and educational attainment. I am currently involved in a longitudinal project examining reading and writing development from primary to upper-secondary school. Intervention studies are another central part of my research and an upcoming intervention study will explore phonics and morphologically based reading instructions for students with reading diffculties in primary school. Before my PhD I worked as a speech language therapist with children and adolescents experiencing language and reading difficulties. For more information in English, please visit Researchgate.
