Dr Johannes Schulz

My main research interest is in constructionist approaches to foreign language acquisition. Broadly speaking, I am interested in the role of recurring linguistic patterns—ranging from fixed to flexible—in foreign language acquisition at all levels of proficiency. I am also interested in experimental pragmatics, particularly in how the interpretation of conveyed meaning differs between L1 and L2 speakers.

Short Biography

After completing a Bachelor of Education in German and English Language Studies at the University of Tübingen, I moved to Oxford to pursue a master's degree in Applied Linguistics and Second Language Acquisition. Subsequently, I joined Elizabeth Wonnacott and her team, completing my PhD in Applied Linguistics in 2024. Currently, I am a Teaching Fellow in Applied Linguistics at the University of Oxford's Department of Education and actively involved in research at the Language Learning Lab.
