Two Teachers Talking™

Just listened to This episode. Personally, thought it was one of your best. A bit more spontaneous, a bit more how-the-sausage-is-made and bit more personal. Maybe a bit more closer to home, being the same age and all. Thanks.

The sempais, Tony Silva and Charles Wiz, are knowledgeable, well-spoken, and funny, and the podcast is a great balance between casual shop talk and solid advice about teaching EFL, especially in the Japanese market.

This biweekly podcast is very useful for even the most experienced of us teachers here in Japan - or anywhere for that matter. Based on 50 years of experience between both of the pod casters, each podcast is based on a common mistake either they or the rest of us here may have made. In a nonthreatening and noncritical way, we can reevaluate some of our own teaching techniques – and we are always left with some useful take-aways! Without being condescending, there are many useful reminders and discussions about our unique teaching situations – covering things both in the classroom and out. Their conversational tone makes you want to grab a drink and sit down at the table with them telling your own stories and asking for their advice. Sometimes you want to laugh - sometimes you want to cry. Thanks guys,
