An Interview with Angela Buckingham from darren elliott on Vimeo.
Today I talked to textbook writer, teacher and teacher trainer Angela Buckingham about how she got into textbook writing, why the characters in her books are non-native speakers, the differences between certificate and diploma trainee teachers and working with asylum seekers in the UK Further Education context. She was great company and didn’t even mind too much when I asked her to hold up two of her textbooks to camera, and she had plenty more of interest to add after the cut. Charles, by the way, is our local OUP rep who is busy guiding her around the area. He’s a pretty good sport too!
Any chance of having your interviews and presentations as downloadable MP3s? Then I’d be able to listen to it on the walk to work
There is every chance, Alex. I have all of these interviews recorded with a proper microphone ready to go as podcasts, but I am having trouble getting them up onto my server and onto the blog. Once that is resolved these, and some skype interviews in the works, should be up on itunes.
