The Importance of Laughter in Teaching

Most of my experiences as a teacher have been wonderful, I wish I could capture them all. The particular lesson at the British Council that I taught on Thursday last week, 15 years later, was good. There was laughter, yes, which I do think is important. Laughter really breaks the ice and makes everyone feel a bit better. My skills as a stand-up comedian are very useful. It will help you climb up and help you claw forward in terms of your confidence. If you've been a student of mine, hopefully, what you're thinking now is like, Luke, what are you talking about?"
