Episode Synopsis
Ep. 20 “How Dogme ELT Saved Me” with Language Coach and Passionate ELT Business Owner Nina Hanáková
Join us for an energizing chat with the delightful Nina Hanáková, coach, language school owner, and champion of the freelance ELT professional, as we discuss her experiential-based learning approach, and the influence of the emergent-language focused, materials-light model known as Dogme ELT on her teaching.
An unabashed fan of Luke Meddings’ and Scott Thornbury’s book on Dogme principles in ELT, Teaching Unplugged: Dogme in English Language Teaching, Nina shares with us how her own experiential learning-based approach influenced by Dogme methodology revived her passion for ELT at a pivotal career moment.
The Dogme style dovetailed beautifully with her natural inclinations to blend real-life experiences and learner-centric methods into her sessions. It solidified her convictions and freed her to pursue her instincts in the training room. She hasn’t looked back since, and after 19 years of freelance English language training, she is still “loving it every single day.”
Her energy, warmth, and enthusiasm are palpable and her genuine love for our profession shines through as she explains her personal philosophy of English language coaching. A strong advocate for sharing tips and tricks, Nina reveals her latest technological hacks that have greatly boosted her learner retention and can do the same for you.
Nina Hanáková is the founder of the Club For Successful Female ELT Entrepreneurs, and creator of the Language Teacher's Festival in her hometown of Brno in the Czech Republic (this year in May.) Reach out to her on LinkedIn and at www.ninaenglish.cz
