In this episode of Deep Learning Dialogues, we interview Laura MacPhee, an ESL teacher from St. Louis, the adult education school within WCDSB. Our conversation explores how Generative AI assists teachers in achieving a work-life balance, enhances the lives of newcomers, and addresses the challenges of prompt crafting. Laura shares her journey in using GenAI tools for effective lesson planning and passionately encourages others to embrace AI, highlighting its fun, time-saving benefits. This episode is a must-listen for educators looking to integrate AI into their practice and transform their teaching experience.

Laura MacPhee is fairly new to the classroom, joining St. Louis Adult Learning Centre a couple of years ago. She has worked in several industries over the years, including aviation software and healthcare. Laura has always had a love for language and a passion for helping people. In teaching Adult ESL, she has the incredible opportunity to combine these two aspects. 

Teaching our newest Canadians about the wonder of the English language is an honour and a privilege that she is thrilled to do each day.

In the classroom, Laura is enjoying the challenge of navigating the many digital tools available to educators and has overcome her fear of the unknown to embrace the many uses of generative AI. You can find her on LinkedIn.
