The Future of English Language Teaching: Personal Perspectives

Abstract

This paper outlines the British Council’s Future of English programme from both a historical perspective (the work on the futures thinking in English language teaching since the turn of the millennium) and the British Council’s 2023 publication, The Future of English: Global Perspectives. The three authors of this book give personal perspectives on the changing role of teachers and the teaching of English from their own experiences as first language English speakers, and speculate on how this role has changed and will continue to change.
