SUMMARY:Looking In\, Looking out: Reflections on Professional Development
DESCRIPTION:As language teachers we are frequently constrained by events be
 yond our control\, such as regulations and requirements imposed from above
 . Our classrooms have become overtaken by assessment\, data\, and metrics.
  In these times of endless evaluation it can be challenging to teach human
 ely and respectfully in a way that helps us connect and engage with our st
 udents. In this talk we examine ourselves and our profession in two ways: 
 first we look inward\, to see what we can learn from within ourselves and 
 ourselves in relation to others\; and secondly we look outward to see what
  we as English language teaching professionals can learn from those outsid
 e our field. Our ultimate goal is to connect and engage with our students 
 in such a way that their success comes from our commitment to them with ou
 r hearts\, as well as our heads.
