You can take a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. You can take a teacher to training, but you can't make them develop. We'll discuss the differences between "training" and "development", what "development" actually means, and what motivates teachers to develop.

Podcast: Are You Developing Or Only Being Trained?

<p>Far too much of language teaching literature is, to quote Stephen Krashen, “Far too long, far too incomprehensible and far too full of jargon,” not to mention far too expensive. The TEFL Training Institute podcast is short, easy to understand and free. In each 15-minute episode, we discuss practical, thought-provoking or controversial topics with our friends, and some of the biggest names in language teaching. From motivation to materials, training to teenagers, approaches to assessment, if you want to become a better teacher, trainer or manager, start here. With host Ross Thorburn.</p>
