CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:08:02 #ELTchat #DU18chat can we start talking about tonight's topic @Marisa_C
RacchioMaria 2018-05-30T18:08:22 #DU18Chat #ELTChat

CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:10:53 #DU18chat #eltchat What difference can you see between native and non-native teachers?
Pascalune12 2018-05-30T18:11:16 #ELTChat #DU18chat Good evening everybody!
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:11:18 @Marisa_C Lots of good discussion has certainly made a difference #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:12:36 @CsillaBenn non-native teachers often have a greater understanding of grammar and can use their experience to help their learners #ELTchat
CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:13:28 #DU18chat #eltchat there is a big difference between state schools and private language schools, at least in France.
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:14:27 @CsillaBenn Do private language schools prefer native speakers? Is is cheaper to hire them? #ELTchat

ELTC_TD 2018-05-30T18:15:07 A big advantage is that NNS teachers all have experience learning a foreign language  @SueAnnan #eltchat
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:15:23 @Marisa_C @CsillaBenn I contribute empathy, and I share what I know #ELTchat
RacchioMaria 2018-05-30T18:15:35 State schools favour French teachers, the private sector prefers native speakers #DU18Chat #ELTChat
Marisa_C 2018-05-30T18:15:56 Thanks #eltchat - a great contribution https://t.co/MQ5t83Hmji
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:16:07 @RacchioMaria Is it because they can get away with paying less? #ELTchat
Pascalune12 2018-05-30T18:16:31 #ELTchat #DU18chat Is is it not a form of snobbism to be in search of Native Teachers only?
grebaux 2018-05-30T18:16:34 #DU18chat #ELTchat Should we really focus on nativeness  when most of the people who speak English are non native speakers today?
ELTC_TD 2018-05-30T18:17:31 Doesn't it depend on your students' needs too?  @grebaux #eltchat
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:17:32 @Pascalune12 Of course it is. And it should be a matter of employing the best people for the job, regardless #ELTchat
381Clarita 2018-05-30T18:18:05 #ELTchat I have the feeling we don't get many chances to have a job in the private sector as a NNS. But to be fair,… https://t.co/6xn2simk3H

Marisa_C 2018-05-30T18:18:41 Good point - the demand for NS only comes from the Ss as well #eltchat not just the schools https://t.co/SqiKO45xSx
koomska 2018-05-30T18:18:47 #ELTchat when I worked in Poland we had tandem teaching so each class had 2 teachers. NS & NNS. Students appreciated having both
CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:19:03 #ELTchat could you also add the hashtag #DU18chat to your tweets? This is our group's hashtag
grebaux 2018-05-30T18:19:49 @CsillaBenn #DU18chat #eltchat Well, state schools hire French teachers whereas private language schools hire native speakers!

Pascalune12 2018-05-30T18:23:08 #ELTchat #DU18chat Is the Native Non Native Debate as important all over the world as it is in France?
GioLic1976 2018-05-30T18:23:13 Hi there #ELTchat. Traveling but following.
koomska 2018-05-30T18:23:14 @Marisa_C #ELTchat I think students could see benefits of different strengths if teachers worked well together.
CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:23:49 #ELTchat #DU18chat I think each school should have both as they bring different skills and approaches to learning the language
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:23:55 @Pascalune12 unfortunately, yes in many places #ELTchat  #DU18chat

Marisa_C 2018-05-30T18:25:03 @koomska We could be helping each other more #eltchat
SueAnnan 2018-05-30T18:25:28 @Marisa_C In which case, the idea of the shared resource is a good one. Perhaps we should be working together more as standard #ELTchat

CsillaBenn 2018-05-30T18:26:53 @Pascalune12 Yes, it is. Spain is very similar to France but even in countries like hawaï it is an issue #ELTchat #DU18chat
Marisa_C 2018-05-30T18:27:11 @SueAnnan Yes, agree fully - why we are here as well - spreading the word about communicating and learning from each other #ELTChat
