"I apologize if the slang is a bit Gen X. I'm a bit Gen X. I also can't do this at all, because Gen X, not a Londoner and probably way too middle class". Read more 👉 lttr.ai/7fxu #ELTChat #languagenerds #TEFL
Audiolingualism is a methodology associated with the theories of B F Skinner, who once taught a two year old to be deathly afraid of his mother’s fur coat. Read more 👉 lttr.ai/65jB #ELTChat #Duolingo #Audiolingualism

I generally approve of not being so dogmatic in your approach to language teaching/ learning that you discount the idea that there might be other ways of doing it. Read more 👉 lttr.ai/3Kvo #ELTChat #Duolingo #Audiolingualism

There’s a lot of repeating what you hear, copying what you hear, translating in and out of your language but, and this is the interesting thing, quite a lot of it is not meant to be particularly challenging. ▸ lttr.ai/sNEX #ELTChat #Duolingo #Audiolingualism

Because, yes, we can all see the gamification involved in the carefully structured levelling up, and the earning gems, and the being in different leagues competing against other Duolingo participants and so on. Read more 👉 lttr.ai/sNEU #ELTChat #Duolingo

@leoxical @NeilJMcCutcheon @aGhoulfromEldia I wonder if more exposure is needed post teaching. Most modern coursebooks take an exposure 1st, then teaching, then straight to practice route. I find encountering things I've explicitly learned in texts later very helpful, and I almost never notice them without teaching first.
@leoxical @NeilJMcCutcheon @aGhoulfromEldia The only thing that helps now is explicit instruction/ learning. Isn't there some parallel with immersion school data there, or am I misunderstanding it?
@bellinguist I'm so trying this out next opportunity I have.
@languagejones My possible theory is that the NYT wants to be seen as providing challenging puzzles, especially if they are gonna stick it behind a paywall. It's like the difference between boasting rights for completing a cryptic and non cryptic crossword. Assuming it's not random statistics.
There you go - knew someone would have looked into it.
Would be quite interested to see an analysis of how Wordle words place on frequency lists before and after the takeover. Wordle 246 3/6 🟨⬜🟨🟩⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Appropriately enough her Instagram account is English Teacher Journey. Recommended!
But also it was beautifully integrated into a description of how we all naturally gain a better understanding of teaching the more we learn, from different training experiences and just through experience of teaching. #ttt_meaningfulweekend
Dasha Fedorova is talking about how her approach to teaching listening has changed. #ttt_meaningfulweekend
