Ann Loseva: Learning outside teaching | TeachingEnglish | British Council | BBC

The light moral of my musings might be as follows: don’t think a teacher is so almighty as to motivate students to do something they are not inclined to do. Think, instead, that a teacher is someone to help a learner recognize how English could fit in their plain of interests or professional needs. And of course, tell about the things you know with enthusiasm and convincingly enough.
