ESL Talk is a podcast produced by Daniel Shaw who interviews ESL teachers on a variety of aspects of practice. Recent episodes include topics such as: Fears and Competition in the ESL industry; Teaching Subjects and Extracurricular Classes to Students; Bolstering Vocabulary with Teacher Talk; Building Cultural Awareness; and Writing and Publishing ESL Content. The podcast is intended for current and prospective English language teachers, as well as content creators, and educators in general, with the goal of providing “strategies, techniques, advice, and skills to help you improve as a teacher and to be more effective both inside and outside the classroom”. All episodes are clearly labelled and can be listened to directly through the website, without installing a podcast app. The site also includes teaching resources (sample lesson plans), some of which are available at no cost, while others are fee-based. Additionally, educators are able to indicate their interest in being a guest on the podcast, by suggesting a topic and providing information about their expertise on the topic.
