Her PhD, completed in 2015 at the UCL Department of Speech Hearing and Phonetic Sciences, explored the communication strategies used in interactions between hearing and hearing-impaired children, and examined whether hearing and hearing-impaired children are able to adapt the acoustic-phonetic and linguistic properties of their speech to suit their listener’s needs.
