Joshua Wilwohl

Joshua Wilwohl is an assistant professor at the American University of Phnom Penh (AUPP).

He studies how people use language to negotiate their place in the world. His teaching and research focus on English in Cambodia.

Wilwohl’s work addresses questions of what counts as acceptable language and how such judgments shape identity, which is fundamental to understanding global Englishes.

He applies these insights across real-world contexts through the design of communication systems, including a patented navigation technology.

Before joining AUPP, he was on faculty at the Metropolitan College of New York.

Wilwohl is a doctoral student, specializing in English pedagogy, with a BA, MPA, MA, and PgDip. He is also a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA) in the UK.
