Episode Synopsis

In this groundbreaking episode, we dive deep into one of the most controversial debates in language education: does a teacher’s nationality truly determine their ability to teach? As the industry often prioritizes passports over pedagogy, we challenge the outdated norms that overlook experience, expertise, and passion. Through thought-provoking insights and real-world examples, we expose the systemic bias and explore why the focus on nationality must give way to a more inclusive, skills-based approach. Join us as we uncover the truth behind this pervasive myth and discuss how educators and institutions alike can revolutionize the future of teaching.
