Description
<p>How do we keep advanced language learners motivated and how do we meaningfully use a <strong>CI approach at higher levels</strong>? In this episode, we explore the <em>expert-reversal effect</em> 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<strong> input remains compelling, challenging</strong> and supportive of continued acquisition even with the most <strong>advanced learners</strong>. 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.</p><ul><li>Full programme notes are available on <a href="https://www.liamprinter.com/podcast">www.liamprinter.com/podcast</a>.</li></ul><p><strong>Keep in touch and share!</strong></p><ul><li>Follow The Motivated Classroom on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/themotivatedclassroom">@themotivatedclassroom</a> and Facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/themotivatedclassroom">@themotivatedclassroom</a>.</li></ul><ul><li>I'd love to know what you think, please get in touch!
