In this episode I’m speaking with Jennifer Browne. Jennifer is Head of the English Department and TOK coordinator at Stonehill International School, Bangalore. 

We discuss:

• The best book she’s ever taught, read or learnt in school.
• A text or unit that Jenni’s been keen to introduce to the classroom but isn’t quite ready to do so yet
• An introduction to her career to date
• The best and worst things about living in Bangalore
• Jenni’s opinion on how best to give feedback on formative or summative assessments
• How to enhance students TOK experience through English teaching
• The most challenging part of being a HoD in her opinion
• The best advice she’s ever been given or come across in terms of teaching
• And finally, resources that she would recommend for teachers seeking to improve.

Thanks a lot to Jennifer for agreeing to chat at a time when India continues to toil with pandemic based problems.
