Research Interests

Right now, I am working on research related to whether it is possible to have reading difficulties only in Chinese or English among Hong Kong Chinese children. In addition, I am interested in whether Chinese children may have particular difficulties in writing and if so what forms they might take. I am interested in writing because calligraphy and stroke order and various aspects of writing in Chinese are seemingly very important for learning Chinese, much more so than in alphabetic orthographies.
