How do we keep advanced language learners motivated and how do we meaningfully use a CI approach at higher levels? In this episode, we explore the expert-reversal effect and what it means for sustaining input, autonomy and progress as students become more experienced language users. I unpack how we can adjust our practice so that input remains compelling, challenging and supportive of continued acquisition even with the most advanced learners. I also present a detailed overview of my "Teach the Teacher Weeks", where my advanced students become the teachers for a few weeks ever year. A reflective and practical episode with ideas you can adapt straight away for your advanced classes.
