Y2, S1, E6: English as a Second Language (ESL) Teaching in Focus | An Immigrant's Second Language Acquisition Journey

Mastering a language takes a lot of time and effort, especially for someone who isn't born in an English speaking country. This is true for Ms. Inna Figotina, an ESL/FSL teacher who taught in Taipei for a few years.

In this episode, we talk about her starting point as a citizen of Russia, and how migrating to Canada made her fall in love with languages. We also talked about her experience teaching in Taipei, and the uniqueness of their curriculum. We also shared a few perspectives in the difficulty of helping kids and adults. Finally, we discussed about her book, which summarizes how she became a master of three languages, namely English, Russian, and French.
