His specialist interests are the teaching and learning of vocabulary and language teaching methodology. Jay and Paul discuss vocabulary - how many words do native English speakers know? How do we learn new words? Is word frequency important? Is polysemy even a thing? They also discuss the application of Paul's "four strands" method of language learning to online learning environments - a comprehensive theory of second language learning. If you're an English language teacher or avid English language learner - or you're just interested in the magic of language itself - you don't want to miss this discussion.
