In the world of language there are few people as experienced, or as respected, as Patsy Lightbown, Distinguished Professor Emerita at Concordia University in Canada.
She has been working in the field of language teaching and language learning for more than 40 years as a researcher, writer, editor, and consultant and she literally wrote the book on how languages are learned.
In this interview we talk about language acquisition, language learning, language teaching and what life has taught her about the way education works.
I hope you enjoy it!
