À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Language Bridge Podcast, Dr. Giuseppe Chiaramonte tackles a common misconception in education: that professional development (PD) is bad or a waste of time for teachers and administrators. He explains why this belief is false and explores how well-designed PD can transform teaching, especially for English Second Language learners.
Dr. Chiaramonte combines theory and real-world applications, sharing practical strategies from both primary and secondary classrooms. Listeners will hear examples like Total Physical Response (TPR) in early grades and sentence frames in secondary science classes—showing how PD directly improves student engagement and academic language development.
If you’ve ever been frustrated by ineffective workshops or wondered how PD can truly support ESL students, this episode will give you actionable insights and a renewed perspective on professional growth.
