Shhh, I’m Learning!

S1 E6: Introvert-Friendly Teaching, an interview with Robin Kube


Listen Later

Welcome back! Today’s interview is with Robin Kube from NC State University (Go Wolfpack!). Robin has been teaching ESL/ESOL for forty years and so she has a wealth of information on teaching students from all over the world. She’s also introverted and shy, which translates into loads of compassion for more socially selective students. Enjoy the episode and let me know what you think!
