Webinar: Missing in action: sociolinguistics for language and literacy teaching

Tuesday 25th March 2025 – 9.30am – 11.30am (GMT)

Mainstream approaches to language and literacy teaching often foreground idealised models of language and language users, and spend little time considering real language use in real social contexts. This training explores how ESOL practitioners can incorporate vital sociolinguistic insights into their practice, highlighting powerful elements of real-world language use such as the roles of culture, gender, social class and power relationship – and suggests some practical classroom activities that focus on sociolinguistic aspects of language.

The webinar will be delivered by John Sutter and take place on Zoom.
