Her research interests are in the area of teacher education and development\, and the psychological aspects surrounding the foreign language learning and teaching experience. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The world of education is increasingly concerned with issues surrounding the emotional wellbeing of students and teachers. However\, there is still much that we do not know about how the specific challenges faced by English language teachers affect their wellbeing and how teachers can be supported in practice. This talk will provide an understanding of teacher wellbeing and reflect on how teacher education could best address the topic of wellbeing for both pre-service and in-service teachers. Raising awareness of wellbeing does not only help to prevent stress among teachers\, but also to enable teachers of diverse backgrounds and levels of experience to teach high\, be versatile and help other members of the school community to flourish and thrive too. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Silvana Richardson \n \n \n \n \n Saturday 10:10-11:00 7th Auditorium \n \n \n \n \n \n Language Teaching in the Age of The Multilingual Turn \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Recent developments in Multilingualism and Translanguaging have inspired new approaches which recognise the multilingual nature of language learners and language classrooms (both physical and virtual)\, ushering in an asset view of the languages that learners know and use as a valuable resource for learning new languages. English\, while still a dominant global language and the current lingua franca of international communication\, business and academia\, is increasingly being seen as one of the languages ‘in the mix’ used by plurilingual global citizens who want and need to deploy their full  linguistic repertoires\, and in order to do so require to develop plurilingual competencies and mediation strategies in addition to English language skills.  Where does this Multilingual Turn leave the traditional English-only lessons\, and the four-skills coursebook and assessments? How fit for purpose is the largely monocultural focus\, and the English-only methodology still used in many English language teaching organisations and classrooms? What new skills do teachers need to learn and apply to their practice to support the language learning of students from diverse cultural\, educational and linguistic backgrounds\, many of whom are competent users of more than one language? This talk will explore these questions\, and leave you with many more! \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Silvana Richardson is Head of Teacher Development at Bell Educational Services\, Academic Director of Bell Teacher Campus\, Cambridge\, and Quality Programme Manager at the Bell Foundation.
