A quick tech-check Thursday night with the brilliant @joedale who’s preparing THREE compelling talks on using AI in the languages classroom for Saturday’s programme (Nov 14). Joe’s sessions at The Language Show are legendary! Back when the event took place in London, the size of his audiences regularly caused crowd-control headaches! Make sure you don’t miss him this year. Tickets are still available for just £14, giving you access to the entire three-day programme, with every session available on demand for 12 months afterwards.
