Reimagining ELT: Honest Talk about Equity in ELT with Teacher Kay | Intermediate English Conversation
Rewriting the Script: 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 is 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 explore ways to challenge dominant narratives and create language learning environments that celebrate linguistic diversity.
Kay also discusses her course "Creating Cycles of Empowerment," which 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.
