Resumen
Dr. Ruth Breeze received her degree in Modern and Medieval Languages from the
University of Cambridge and subsequently completed a master's degree from the same
university. She has a PhD in language teaching from the University of Navarra. She
was the Director of the Institute of Modern Languages at the University of Navarra
until 2014, is currently a professor of English at the same Institute, and is a member of
the GRADUN research group in the Institute of Culture and Society (ICS). Her
publications focus on discourse analysis, language pedagogy – especially in higher
education - and professional communication. Some of her recent research has focused
on CLIL (e.g. Breeze et al., 2014).
Dr Florentina Taylor holds a PhD from the University of Nottingham, an MEd
in TESOL from the University of Exeter, and Qualified Teacher Status for England.
She currently works at the University of Greenwich as Senior Lecturer in Applied
Linguistics and TESOL. She previously worked in the Department of Education at the
University of York as a Teaching Fellow in TESOL, Lecturer in Language Education
and MA TESOL Programme Leader. Her recent research mainly focuses on identity
and self-perceptions, and their relationships to perceived relevance, motivation,
engagement, uptake and achievement in foreign language education (e.g. Taylor, 2013).
The interviews were carried out in the summer of 2015, following up on
previous conversations relating to education in general, SLA, ESL, CLIL, etc. during
time spent by the author in Pamplona (Spain) as well as in Lancaster and York (United
Kingdom). The interviews reflect some of the crucial points arising from these
discussions.
