Hello and welcome back to Grow: A podcast from Cambridge.

Today we’re bringing you a very special Q&A episode of Grow directly from the beautiful and sunny King’s College in Cambridge.

Host Luísa Geão is joined by English Language Teaching specialists Cecília Lemos Harmer and Olha Madylus, along with co-host Rebecca Rios from Brazil.

Our experts answer real questions submitted by English Language Teachers around the world from Austria, Poland and Georgia - collected at the IATEFL conference in Brighton.

In this episode of Grow, you will discover:
• How to manage large mixed ability classes.
• Ways to use multilingual classrooms as an advantage.
• What to do when tech - or AI - goes wrong.
• How to talk about AI, ethics and plagiarism with your students.
• How to give actionable, encouraging feedback that highlights progress.

If you’ve got a question about your own classroom we’d love to hear from you. Send your questions to growpodcast@cambridge.org and they might feature in a future episode of Grow.
