-
- Utbildning
When we were making the list of countries we wanted to explore in the early episodes of the podcast, Ireland was near the top of the list. Some of the very best writing included in English literature courses was written in Ireland. And if any country understands how English has been used as a colonising tool it is Ireland. Well Scotland too, but def Ireland.
John is an English teacher in Ireland. Dublin to be exact. When he was at college he set up an education consultancy to help pay the bills, he gave tuition and created study aids. This eventually led him into the high school classroom. Currently, while teaching, he provides resources to over 500 schools in Ireland as well as many overseas. He has been doing this for over a decade which makes him one of the first educators to see the benefits of the internet.
