disASTER
From a language teacher who never stopped being a learner
I've spent 25 years watching the gap between knowing and doing play out in language classrooms. Students who know the grammar but freeze when speaking. Teachers who know the research but default to the same lesson.
That gap? It's a disASTER.
I started this newsletter to find the star in disaster. I write about online language teaching and learning, share Notion templates from Language Layouts, and try to make sense of the moment we're in — where large language models are changing what it means to learn a language.
