Does the mere mention of AI strike fear into your heart?

Totally understandable - it's all so overwhelming but don't worry, Teacher: I got you.

For this week's episode, I enlisted the expertise of Legend-in-the-Modern-Foreign Languages-World Joe Dale to give you a starting point.

We also briefly talk about the pitfalls and things you need to consider, especially if teaching younger learners.

If you are still a little trepidatious about using AI to aid your teaching, this episode is for you.

Joe Dale is an independent languages consultant from the UK who works with a range of organisations such as Network for Languages, ALL, The British Council, the BBC, Skype, Microsoft and The Guardian. He was recently described in a Guardian article as an 'MFL guru' and 'the man behind the #mfltwitterati.'.
