IATEFL Reflections 2017 - Pt.1

Just over a week ago, I arrived in Glasgow for my second 5-day IATEFL Conference...IATEFL, the International Association for Teachers of English as a Foreign Language, is one of the big international organisations which bring together ELT (English Language Teaching) related professionals from a variety of global contexts...Getting to Glasgow should have been a pretty simple and uneventful affair, and it certainly was in comparison to many colleagues' international journeys...
