ABSTRACT
This article presents findings from a self-research study based primarily on verbal and written feedback from the students. The aim was to examine comprehensive academic discussion of my experiences developing Freirean dialogic teaching. A brief review of the principles of critical pedagogy and a definition of dialogic teaching according to Freire is offered and a dialogic lesson is described along with a discussion of the difficulties and challenges faced. The approach was effective and found to be essential in the academy, especially in teacher-training although the work would need to be adapted to the needs and constraints of each population group.
