After five years, 150 episodes and conversations with over 50 experts, the book is finally here. ⁠The Motivated Language Classroom: Practical Insights for the Languages Teacher ⁠brings together everything we have learned on the podcast. It covers what motivates our students, how languages are acquired, and what it looks like when we put all of it into practice in our classrooms.

In this six-part special series, I take you inside the book, one part at a time. It’s a kind of abridged audiobook, with excerpts, snippets and my commentary along the way. This week follows on from Ep. 150: Introduction and Forewords. I recommend you go back and listen to that one first! In this episode, I jump into Chapter 1: Motivation. I read from various pages, quote some of the experts whose words appear in this chapter and also add my commentary alongside it. Hope you enjoy it!
