Code Switching

 Earlier this year I did a staff questionnaire where I was asking them about their experiences as a teacher using English as their second (or more) language. Blog post here A very interesting point came up about "code switching" and I mentioned this in my presentation to staff in June. Blog post here

After the staff presentation, Dr Jannie van Hees, a language specialist who works at Tamaki College with some of our students who are English as a second language students, told me that she has researched into code switching and very kindly shared a podcast that she made for the Ministry of Education about it.
