John Scott Lawton's English, you know ...

Spinning the Globe - Language, Culture and Home


Listen Later

In this episode I interview poet, teacher and writer Kathy Ellis, M.Ed.

 

Kathy delivers a range of services from her home in Atlanta, Georgia in the United States of America and these include:

  • Language Coaching, Training, and Instruction in  workplace scenarios, job search, TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC, and  general English competency
    • Cross-cultural communication competency skills for the global workplace, Licensed in Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) and Cultural Detective

    • In the podcast we discuss our separate motivations for teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language and find that our career paths have intersected at various points, following certain patterns of symmetry.

      We discuss what it means to live and work abroad, what it teaches us and whether or not we are prepared for all the lessons we may have to learn when away from home.

      Kathy reads three of her poems taken from her published books.

      Kathy's two poetry books referenced in the podcast and available for purchase are:
