    Hi, peter. I enjoyed this podcast. It is just a talk. It is very familiar. Although I teach English, I can get benefit from your opinions. I agree with you absolutely. Interest in the best teacher for the students. I’m not sure Is it suitable for you to talk about how to teach English, offer some English exercises or sth like that?

      Thank you for your comment, Vivienne. I am busy talking about mathematics teaching, so there isn’t really an opportunity to talk about teaching English. I think you are right – there are features of great teaching that work no matter what you teach.

    Peter,
    I LOVED hearing you call teaching tricks and cheats “bogus teaching”. I agree 100%. My position is teaching in an elementary school in the United States. I teach grades 1-5 math enrichment and I provide support to our staff in the area of mathematics.
    I look forward to watching more of your podcasts and I invite you to check out my website. I’m just launching it and would love your feedback.
