Description
As we have noted in earlier chapters, language teachers appreciate the value of carefully thought out, deliberate ‘strategic repetition’ to help with understanding and with remembering. So, in the sections of this chapter, we will re-present the main RP and LiLE learning points from the Question One, Question Two, and Question Three responses (we have just seen the Question Four response summaries). But, in the spirit of ‘repetition with a twist’, I will add a brief paragraph to each of the learning points, using some of my own ‘personal-professional, sometimes confessional’ narratives, in some cases being shared here for the very first time publicly and in print.
