I'm a High Life Flyer and a Rainbow Rider with Joy MacFarland

Talk to Us @BounceEnglish

Recording date: December 16, 2020

Guest: Joy MacFarland, Boston

Synopsis: Need a shot of hope and inspiration? Well, you’re in luck because this episode has both, thanks to our amazing guest, Joy MacFarland. A former English Language Teacher, Joy now works in ELT publishing and promotes collaboration within the ESL industry (even with, gasp, competitors!) through her love of conferences! We discuss the impending challenge of enticing qualified teachers back to the classroom after getting “real jobs” because of Covid-19. And we talk about how Language Learning can change the world, one student at a time. We also get a chance to hear Joy use one of our favorite new quotes, “We’re a huggy industry.”
