Elvis Coimbra Gomes

PhD in Linguistics

About me

I am a linguist and English language teacher holding a PhD in Linguistics from Queen Mary University of London (supervised by Prof. Erez Levon and Dr. Olivia Knapton) alongside MA degrees in pedagogy (Haute École Pédagogique Vaud) and English Language & Literature (University of Lausanne). Fully certified to teach across Swiss secondary and vocational institutions, my background bridges discourse studies, pedagogy and film studies.

Some people may find it difficult to pronounce my last name. The "C" in "Coimbra" is pronounced like the "c" in "cat" and the "oi" like in "going". Here is a phonetic transcription that might help you: ˈɛlvɪs 'kɔimbɹɑ 'gəʊmɛs
