On this episode, our guest is Sarah Blair, and we discuss her ideas around visualising grammar. Sarah trained as an illustrator and came to TEFL via an interest in graphic novels and a desire to work in Paris. Paris didn't evolve in quite the way she'd intended, but what did emerge was a long-term project to create a visual guide to English grammar. She also teaches writing and communication skills at the Royal College of Art.
