Zdenek Lukas
About this episode

In this podcast, I talk to HUGH DELLAR, an English teacher, teacher trainer, materials writer, and a well-known proponent of the Lexical Approach in the world of English teaching. Most interviews Hugh does are about the Lexical approach, but he's also very vocal regarding the current conflict in Ukraine and that's what this episode is mainly about. We talk about Hugh's views on the war, his recent trip to Ukraine, the responsibility to speak out if you have a platform, Russia's nuclear threats, hypocrisy, whatabouterism, and much more. Hugh has his online school called the Lexical Lab. 👉Hugh's website: The Lexical Lab
