Who is Luke? Hi, IΓÇÖm Luke and IΓÇÖm an English Language teacher from London. IΓÇÖve been teaching English for over 11 years. I started in Japan and lived in Kanagawa prefecture for two years. Since then IΓÇÖve been teaching in London and I regularly teach courses in business English, academic English, legal English, general English and English for exam courses like FCE, IELTS and BEC. I graduated from Liverpool John MooreΓÇÖs University in 1999 with a BA Hons degree in Media and Cultural Studies. I worked at various media production companies before going into English language teaching. I took my CELTA in 2001 and then my DELTA in 2006 at UCL. I now teach full time in a language school in London. I am a prolific writer of ELT materials, and I often design courses in EAP for which I usually write the material. I have written original courses for English for the Pharmaceutical Industry, English for the Oil and Gas Industries and English for Journalists. I am a semi-published author with some of my work being used in materials publications in several countries. I started LukeΓÇÖs English Podcast in 2009 and since then it has become enormously popular. I plan to continue writing material and publishing episodes of the podcast before hopefully publishing material of my own and expanding my website. I am also a musician and a comedian. I play drums and bass in several bands, and I regularly perform stand-up comedy in London. I sincerely hope you enjoy listening to LukeΓÇÖs English Podcast and that you find it improves your English.

145. Nightmare Teaching Experiences (Part 1)
This episode is all about English teaching and some stories of bad classroom experiences. Transcript available.
Hello listeners, how are you doing? It's a beautifully clear and sunny September day here. This time of year always reminds me of going back to school after the summer holidays. So, because of that, I'm going to talk about some teaching experiences in various schools I have worked in over the years.
In this episode I'm going to talk to you about my experiences of being an English Language Teacher. I'll tell you what it's like from the teacher's point of view, share with you a few really bad experiences I've had as a teacher and then explain what I learned from them.
145. Nightmare Teaching Experiences
There you can read every single word I'm saying, you can copy+paste words into google to check them, or you can transcribe some of what I'm saying and then compare it to the correct version provided on my website. There's lots of ways to use the transcript as a tool in your English learning. If you need more ideas, just leave a comment below asking for suggestions.
You should also look out for some idiomatic expressions I use in this episode. I have scattered a number of idioms throughout the episode. I think they're useful, common and expressive ones. Can you notice them? I will deal with them in the next episode.
