about

Whether we like it or not, a lot of resources (be it news articles, books, zines, podcasts, blogs, literature or academic research) about the world today are only available in English.
 
Hot Take English is for people whose first language is not English and who want to communicate in English about topics related to politics, activism and social justice – but in a simplified, level-appropriate way. It is also for teachers who want to teach these topics to their students.
 
Hot Take English will allow students to learn English in a way that is interesting as well as useful.
​
I want to equip students with the language knowledge to go out and make the world a better place, to debate and challenge people and to educate themselves on the topics they actually care about.
​
Expect to learn about a vast range of topics in English, including anti-racism, LGBTQI+ rights, anti-colonialism, feminism, climate change, activism, protest, inequality, migration, the economy, corruption, human rights... and many more!
