An amazing day at the 'Writing Ethnography' Conference UCL! Huge thanks to @SarojiniSapru & Tyler Valiquette for organizing this. Passion for ethnography across disciplines brought us together. A day full of insights, methodologies and shared experiences UCL IAS @ucl-ias.bsky.social UCL Geography

Based on our fieldwork, Dr. Sara Young and I presented our joint project on the growing trend of Turkish middle-class migration to London for their children's education. We discussed this with Turkish language teachers working at complementary schools across the UK.

I'll share an alternative London story, one rarely seen in glossy posts. A modern fairy tale of Millennials, not in castles but trapped in a brutal housing market, where the only escape from house-sharing is finding a partner to split the rent #speakinghome #sharedhousing #London

The The British Academy Conference 2025, now hybrid University of Stirling! My talk 'From Affinity to Stigma: Arabic Language in Turkiye’s Migration Context,' will share data from 3 fieldworks, revealing urban-rural divides, educational backgrounds and intergenerational differences. 15:10 (GMT)!

I spoke at Warwick’s MIT Network about my forthcoming book, to be published by Palgrave, where I bring a sociolinguistic lens to London’s housing crisis by exploring language, identity & household relations in shared houses. Recording of my talk is below: warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/…

I will be presenting our research with Dr. Sara Young from UCL at #BAAL2025 in Glasgow! We’ll be talking about educational mobility and middle-class Turkish families moving to London. Looking forward to reconnecting with colleagues and meeting new peers in the field! BAAL: British Association for Applied Linguistics
