Episode 4: Exploding The Myth of ELT - Episode 4 - Practice, Misunderstanding, Coping and Corporatisation

English Out There - Exploding the Myth of ELT

In this episode Caroline brings up the big issue of English learners not understanding language during speaking practice and how she, Judy Thompson and her "English is Crazy" book, and others, approach it and try to fix it. Jason has his own slightly different slant on the problem and, in the context of how he and the English Out There method and learning materials work, explains how he thinks it happens and how he sets about trying to help learners to learn to cope with a lack of comprehension, to get over it fast, and then to flourish. Don't think these problems aren't linked to the conventional ELT system and how it prevents progress in learners' speaking....that's the corporatisation bit at the end...of course! :-)
