Mahtab Janfada is a Senior Lecturer in Language and Literacy Education at the University of Melbourne, Australia and a former academic at Tehran University, Iran. Having grown up in Persian culture, with deep dialogic grounds, Mahtab keenly translated dialogism and relationality into her teaching, research, being, and living in a diasporic context, which has paved the way for a constant process of becoming and learning at the boundary. Her research on academic literacy and academic identity in a transnational and translingual era of education underscores the significant translation of these dialogic philosophies and methodologies into language and literacy education, published in journals such as Changing English, The Australian Journal of Language and Literacy, English in Australia, and Discourse and Educational Philosophy and Theory.
