Dr. Jill Boggs
Swansea University, UK
My interest in applied linguistics developed through my teaching, mainly in South Korea, where I lived and worked for many years. My primary research examines corrective feedback for the development of grammatical accuracy in L2 learners’ writing, with particular interest in learners taking required English courses in their home contexts.
