Working with this supervisor
Since graduate admissions are highly competitive, I have written a blog post that I ask all interested applicants to read first. Once read, I invite highly qualified potential students with degrees in Linguistics, German, or Education - Second Language Teaching (but not TESOL) to send me an email with their CV (formatted in APA 7), proof of English Language Proficiency (if applicable) and a 1 page research proposal (format: research question, literature review, proposed methodology, significance of the idea) to rahdress@ucalgary.ca. I will review and respond to those inquiries. Due to the high volume of emails, those emails without these items may not be answered.
