Some Information About SocioLingo Africa

A bit about me

Hi, I’m Maggie and I’m a sociolinguist with a PhD in education.  I’ve worked in a number of African countries and in the UK.

This site has grown out of my own interest and experience in Africa and I hope you find something here that interests you.  I actively seek positive stories because I want to keep a positive focus for the blog. I also like to focus on subjects that are not covered by others. My own interests are very broad and not all the posts in this blog reflect my own opinion.

I’m proud to be hosted by DreamHost, an ethical company owned by its workers, and I am really grateful for the set-up help from Ninja Blog Set Up
