English Out There explodes the myth of English language teaching (ELT) that the global education industry would rather you didn't know about. English Out There is a hugely effective way to learn to speak English. Listen to me, Jason West, and top EOT teacher Caroline Swinton based in Italy (see her on Facebook) talk about how EOT works and why it is so effective. Listen to EOT teachers working with learners like you from around the world...can you recognise and hear that it is a completely different kind of process compared to the usual type of English lessons that most of the world is sold and has been for decades? Listen to me talking with other educators about English language learning in the 21st century. EOT involves using some unique learning content before having focused and effective learning conversations . EOT gets you using new language with fluent and native speakers...and it works and is a lot of fun!WARNING: Occasional contextually appropriate profanity :-)

That's rather a challening title isn't it? Well, Judy, Caroline and myself all really don't like to call ourselves "teachers" because, as you will hear if you listen, we feel the word doesn't describe what we do and is sort of obsolete in today's world. Are you wedded to the notion that "teaching" is (still) the right word to slap onto the role of someone who supposedly helps others to acquire usable skills and knowledge? If you are we three would, respectfully, invite you to listen to our rationale and give it some thought in the context of your day-to-day activities with other people's brains and the learning outcomes you are hoping to achieve with them. If you are on LinkedIn you might even like to go and contribute to the discussion below a post Judy put up a week ago about education in Finland versus education in North America.
