Tracey McHenry

EWU
Professor of English

I've taught at EWU for 20 years, and I enjoy teaching linguistics, grammar at all levels, applied linguistics, research methods, and World Englishes. My research has been in language policy and World Englishes, and my most recent publication is a 2019 book chapter called "The Politics of English for Tourism: A World Englishes Perspective."

I am currently working on a book contribution about Names and World Englishes (expected in 2022).
