MOVILIDAD SOCIAL, POBREZA, TEORÍA DEL CAPITAL HUMANO, TESOLResumen
Esta entrevista explora la intersección entre la movilidad social y las desigualdades en TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) a través de una entrevista con Peter Sayer. Su investigación se centra en las complejidades de TESOL en contextos multilingües, particularmente en México y EE.UU. Peter Sayer cuestiona el mito del inglés internacional, poniendo en duda su papel en la reducción de la pobreza y la promoción del cambio social. Discute las implicaciones de la Teoría del Capital Humano en la enseñanza del inglés, criticando su enfoque en la adquisición de habilidades. Aboga por un enfoque plurilingüe a través del translanguaging, destacando la importancia de aprovechar los repertorios lingüísticos de los estudiantes en el aula. Peter Sayer imagina que las futuras líneas de investigación en TESOL deben estar arraigadas en la práctica, con el objetivo de cerrar la brecha entre la teoría y la práctica, y hacer que la educación en inglés sea más relevante y accesible para estudiantes de diversos contextos socioeconómicos.
