A bit about Oliver D

I’m a linguist. My early degrees were in stylistics, which is about linguistic expression and interpretation. My PhD is on formal thought disorder in schizophrenia. I use corpus, experimental, and machine learning methods to study language pathology at different levels, like word formation (morphology) and contextual meaning (pragmatics). Like many linguists, I also work with non-verbal data. I started tutoring in 2011, the first year of my BA (Hons). I've since gone on to do other things alongside tutoring, like sessional lecturing, freelancing as a linguistics consultant, and teaching behavioural science on YouTube. My teaching style is about you. I take some time to figure out what it is that you need to progress, and this involves listening to your views on where you want to develop and challenge yourself. Once we've established this, I work to design an approach that will do that for you. I like spending time with my family at the end of the day.
