Episode 42: World Englishes
Manage episode 236158475 series 2361215
What do you think - should teachers teaching English teach English English or American English? How's that for a question, huh? What if you are a South African? Can you teach South African English? And how about if you are Australian? Can an Australian teach English English with confidence, or should he teach American English, or would he have no confidence with that either? And what should the students learn? Does it matter? Are there enough questions in this blurb? Should we add a few more? What would your English be like if you would of lived somewhere other than the place you have got to have been in?
