Reimagining ELT with Teacher Kay | Intermediate English Language Conversation

Reimagining ELT with Teacher Kay

Honest Talk about Equity in English Language Teaching & Learning

 

In today’s English language conversation, Teacher Kay of Sincerely Teaching joins me to discuss reimagining English Language Teaching (ELT) so that it's inclusive and just for English language teachers AND learners.

Kay shares her journey into teaching English and unpacks the deep-rooted issues of native speakerism and racism within the industry. She helps us challenge dominant narratives in order to create language learning environments that celebrate linguistic diversity.

Kay also discusses her course (that you definitely want to take!!!) called "Creating Cycles of Empowerment." It aims to give teachers the tools to transform their teaching practices and offer students a learning space that is authentic and socially-conscious.

 

This intermediate and advanced English conversation offers a powerful critique of the status quo in ELT and provides a hopeful vision for a more inclusive future. 

And as always, it's an opportunity for you, the English language teacher and English language learner to practice listening to messy, imperfect, wonderful spoken English.
