Programme 298, A Teacher Explores Teaching Irish (28-6-17)
from Inside Education - a podcast for educators interested in teaching · host Sean Delaney
Presented and produced by Seán Delaney. On this week's programme philosopher and retired primary school teacher, John Doyle, explores his relationship to the Irish language. It's a complicated picture but one that he attempts to portray because it informs his teaching of the language. He considers such excavation for teaching as being like the preparation a boxer does in the gym before stepping into a boxing ring for a fight. The essay is abridged in order to fit in the 30-minute duration of the radio programme.
