Place in HLT
The very fact that Tessa Woodward has dedicated most of her career to ensuring that teachers are happy and passionate about their work, and capable of bringing out the best in themselves and each and every one of their students, is testimony to her wholehearted commitment to Humanistic Language Teaching.
Her innate sense of fairness and compassionate nature, along with her intelligent curiosity and creativity, have combined to touch the lives of many in the ELT and HLT communities, through her articles, course materials and lectures, not to mention the noteworthy achievement of founding The Fair List (www.thefairlist.org)
Throughout her career, Tessa Woodward has been involved in every aspect of language teaching, in many different countries and cultures around the world: herself as a learner, as a teacher, as a teacher trainer, as a trainer of teacher trainers, as well as a lecturer, author, editor and manager, and it is precisely this incredible breadth of experience, compounded with her empathy, that has made her an invaluable asset to the HLT community.
On a Personal Note…
Tessa has admitted that she feels much more comfortable away from the limelight and in characteristic fashion, agreed to embrace this project in order to showcase the importance of gender fairness and give due representation to women in the world of ELT at large, and HLT in particular.
