136 ¦ Teach the Teacher: Motivation, input & acquisition in advanced classes
Episode 136
Thursday, 20 November, 2025
How do we keep advanced language learners motivated and how do we meaningfully use a CI approach at higher levels? In this episode, we explore the expert-reversal effect and what it means for sustaining input, autonomy and progress as students become more experienced language users. I unpack how we can adjust our practice so that input remains compelling, challenging and supportive of continued acquisition even with the most advanced learners. I also present a detailed overview of my "Teach the Teacher Weeks", where my advanced students become the teachers for a few weeks ever year. A reflective and practical episode with ideas you can adapt straight away for your advanced classes.Full programme notes are available on www.liamprinter.com/podcast.Keep in touch and share!Follow The Motivated Classroom on Instagram @themotivatedclassroom and Facebook @themotivatedclassroom.I'd love to know what you think, please get in touch!
