If you are an international student in an English as a Second Language program in New York City, we want to interview you! Your collaboration will help us develop a podcast series about the stories of international students in English as a Second Language (ESL) programs in English schools in New York City. The project aims to provide visibility to the educational migration in this specific context and to promote a discussion on how international students and educators can reimagine their teaching and learning experience. It also aims to reveal ESL schools’ challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they incorporated digital technologies during and after this event.
