ALE Daniel Scott from the School of Policy Studies gave a presentation on Motivation in the Adult ELT Classroom: A Study into Teacher Perception of Student Motivation at the The 19th LaoTESOL International Conference, which was held from February 6th to 7th 2025 in Vang Vieng, Laos. This year's theme, "Innovative Approaches to ELT: Teaching Methods and Assessment," called upon educators, researchers, and practitioners to share their insights and research on cutting-edge strategies that enhance English language teaching and assessment. It was a great opportunity to network with educators and academics, in addition to sharing my research and exchanging ideas with international peers.
