Profile

Andrey is an Honorary Senior Lecturer in the School of Education. Before retirement, he spent 11 years as the Director of the full-time MA Programme in Education. Previous to this, he was the Director of Initial Teacher Education. He also supervised and examined doctoral students. Before beginning work at the university in 2005, he served as a consultant for a local authority and taught in a local secondary school. He started his teaching career as a teacher of English Literature at an Egyptian English-medium secondary school, Victoria College, in Alexandria. He continues to be associated with the School of Education through his research and publications.

Research interests

Andrey's principal research interests are in the fields of sociolinguistics, multilingualism and faith- based complementary schooling. His recent work focuses on religious language policy and planning and the relationship between language and meaning. He led an AHRC-funded international research network on performance and faith: Heavenly Acts – aspects of performance through an interdisciplinary lens. His current project (‘ultralingualism’) examines different linguistic contexts and purposes where language is regularly used but the prioritisation of accompanying meaning is either partial or absent.
