| Description | The aim of this text is to discuss the process of professional development that the author experienced since she decided to provide individual advising sessions to students of the ‘English Autonomously’ course. The introduction of new, less directive communication practices that were grounded in actual encounters with students as well as in the theory of language advising will be described. Similarly, the text will present the change in practices that the English Autonomously team has used to evaluate the course and the advising sessions in particular from standardized course feedback to more appropriate reflective practices including peer observation. |
