Please review Episode 19 before listening.

Live, on stage, Raymond and his colleagues Dave Eloy and Emil Bong try to be Perry Como.

(ATTN: Coarse language alert.) This is the first in a three-part series looking at a longitudinal qualitative study on the effectiveness of a one-on-one language teacher/student "class" collaborating together to make several podcast episodes. In phase 1, the teacher is the host and student is the co-host. In phase 2, which will be looked at next time, the student is the host and will contribute the majority of speaking. There are also other reasons why we have so much teacher talk in the teacher/student podcast excerpts featured in today's ELT Talk episode. For example, there are sessions in which teacher and student listen together to the recordings with a focus on listening comprehension, including gap-fill activities with transcripts. Again, tune in next time for more explanation in Part 2.  Please send any comments, questions, or complaints to the ELT Talk Facebook Group. All concerns will be addressed next time.

Join us for a behind the scenes look at a TESOL affiliate online annual conference with Mathew Ostroskie and Raymond Broccoli.

We're back from summer vacation and putting the talk back into ELT Talk, with plenty of off-topic tangents and hot takes! Tune in and meet James Campbell, an ESL teacher who carries his homemade computer around in an old typewriter case.

Teachers sit around a campfire and talk about the Process Approach and Textual Carnivals.
