Good Lessons vs. GREAT Lessons: Life’s Too Short Not to Find a Great Tutor

Listen Later

Lindsay is back from Korea and Kerstin is back from America, and we're all together again to talk about finding yourself a GREAT language tutor!

We discussed

  • what the research tells us about the 5 signs that a teacher is extremely competent
  • how to get super clear about what you want from language lessons
  • why your first lesson is NEVER going to be a normal language leasson
  • whether it's ever okay to ghost your tutor!
    • ...and so much more!
