  • Diet, veganism, and learning from your own conversation class!
    Aug 31 2023

    Sahar explains beautifully in this episode how a recent discussion group on the topic of diet and healthy eating got her reflecting on the topic and resulted in some unexpected learning on her part!

    Often one of the best parts of being a teacher is hearing our learners' perspectives on various issues and learning from them! It really is a privilege!

    You can find more from Sahar here and enquire about joining one of her groups to have your own thinking inspired end enlightened!

  • Learning With Stories! Storytelling for English
    Jul 14 2023

    Alina & Fiona discuss Alina's story-telling method of teaching English to young learners.

    How can we make sure that we actually enjoy the process of learning and don't just rush to the finish line, beating ourselves with the 'not good enough' stick all the way!?

    Alina's method of exploring and absorbing stories while almost learning by accident is a brilliant way of doing just that! I wish I could go back and be a student in her class!! In this podcast episode, she explains how it all works.

    You can find Alina here: www.instagram.com/english.with.stories
    and Fiona here: www.instagram.com/upskillingforchange

    And remember, we're always looking for other English-language teaching professionals from around the world to collaborate with on our podcast! Get in touch if you'd like to discuss or share something with our global community of teachers!
