Hi there! I'm a PhD candidate in the Linguistics Department at Stanford University, advised by Dan Jurafsky. I'm an enthusiastic member of the Stanford NLP group. In my publications, I use my full name, Dorottya Demszky.

My research focuses on developing and applying natural language processing methods to support student centered education. My recent work in this domain includes analyzing the representation of historically marginalized groups in US history textbooks and measuring teachers' uptake of student ideas in classroom discourse.

I am invested in understanding how NLP can be put to the service of social good. In addition to my education projects, I have worked on dialect feature recognition, emotion detection, and on using natural language processing to understand political issues, such as polarization and propaganda.
