As part of my job as a professor to prepare WL and ESL teachers, I often have students for whom teaching will be a second or third career. So they’re typically (much) older than traditional college students. Today I received such a sweet message from a 50+ grad student.

I have done several Zoom interviews and I want to transcribe them using free tools. Have you used any and can you recommend the best one? I am also happy to pay for specific tools (and could potentially even pay for transcription, but depends on costs).

@raulpacheco It’s vacation time for the Dutch right now - which explains the crowds at the airport.

I arrived at 9:00am for an 11:20am flight and I *barely* made it.

If you’re travelling through @Schiphol airport you really ought to come to the airport 3-4 hours in advance. It’s PACKED.

Join me @CLT_COED on March 5

Go to flanc.org for more information or click here (buff.ly/3S6YDzx ) to submit a proposal. Proposal deadline is March 2nd. Submit your proposal today!
