About TEFL Commute

TEFL commute is a podcast for language teachers. It is not about language teaching though inevitably it might crop up. All three of us are avid podcast listeners and like playing around making our own. TEFL commute is meant to be a light-hearted listen aimed at brightening your daily commute to class. Each episode is built a round a topic that you could use in your teaching and the podcast will have page on this site that will link you to articles, questions and resources you can use with your students. You can even get involved by recording your snippet of mp3 for inclusion on a future episode or leaving us a suggestion on this site.We had fun making and developing the idea so we hope you enjoy the listen.Lindsay, Shaun and James

   TEFL Commute S17 ep 5

   .....in which we change the AI asking us questions and as a result find out what would be in a staffroom vending machine, as well as  talk far too long about board markers.  We also discuss which model verbs, and rename the present perfect…..towards the end we go bananas

   .......in which the chatbot combines two of our favourite things - board gaming and teaching English. Among other things, we answer what game mechanics might work best in the classroom, and whether teachers are dungeon masters!
