Episode 34: Being a Native Speaker but not what the Students Expect with Radhika Iyer

Do all EFL teachers look and sound the same?  I am joined by Radhika Iyer, who shares her experiences of native speakerism when encountering students who decide this is an issue and how managers do, or don't deal with this in a supportive way. You can connect with Radhika on Twitter at @Radhikaiyer307. Also mentioned: @hughdellarSign up to my twice-monthly newsletter!: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/l5f8v6Join my Breathe Easy, Teacher newsletter community here: http://subscribepage.io/0a49drTheme music by @sean.cass (Instagram).Contact me: ⁠erin@refreshyourteaching.com⁠Like, share, DM me and follow me on Instagram @https://www.instagram.com/everythingeflteacher/ and on Facebook@www.facebook.com/groups/eflteachersupport/Subscribe to Youtube @Everything EFL for teaching tip videos and full podcast episodes with Closed Captions.Connect with me on LinkedIn @ https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-o-byrne-90b58a55/Subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple.... and don’t forget to tell your colleagues.

I’m passionate about serving teachers. There’s no one size fits all lesson plan or solution to your class needs and issues. But, you’ve got a friend and support system in me. I can help reduce your overwhelm, give you some teachy inspo and improve your work-life balance. How? With solid takeaways you can try out immediately AND some much needed teacher love. Because your wellbeing is important too. You can find my contact details in the show notes if you'd like me to work with your institution and create a tailor-made CPD workshop for you.
