Trying to get the podcast versions of the interviews off the ground – there are now four available for download as mp3 audio files, either manually from this blog, or via the one-click iTunes subscription up in the top corner of the sidebar there. There will be more to follow, as I edit the audio files I have. Hopefully, by the summer I will be caught up enough so all interviews will be available simutaneously as audio downloads and video streams.
I’m still interested in interviewing teachers via skype…my details are on the ‘about’ page up there….
If you enjoy the podcsats, please leave a nice iTunes review… that helps them move up the rankings, and helps get them publicised to people who might otherwise miss them.

There has been a lot of discussion of dogme around the blogosphere recently, triggered by the tenth anniversary of the movement. Not all of it kind….

the lives of teachers
An audio version of the video interview we did at JALT 2009 in Shizuoka, Japan.
I first saw Miles speak a couple of years ago at another JALT event, and at the time was very impressed with his fair but candid assessment of writing and publishing in ELT. When I started this series he was one of the people I was hoping to talk to, so I was delighted to see his name as a featured speaker. Amongst other things, we talked about how a book is put together, design, the pain of writing, the needs of students and teachers and the future of the publishing industry.

the lives of teachers – introduction
It’s three and a half minutes long, it’s a test, but let’s see how it works. You should be able to subscribe via itunes, but I’m not sure how frequent the content will be. Some audio versions of previous videos to follow though, along with a few new interviews lined up in the next month.
If you are interested in appearing as a guest, especially if you are non-native English speaker and/or working in an interesting context, please drop me a line at darrenrelliott@gmail.com or leave a comment in the box below.
Cheers!
