When using an authentic audio or video it is important to use only ‘native speakers'.

When using an authentic audio or video it is important to use only ‘native speakers'. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons.


Some years ago, I would say that it was important, but now I always consider using non-native audio and video, as students need to be in contact with all the "Englishes" used and spoken around the world.

Before, I would use just British and American English, and sometimes a native speaker from Scotland or Australia.

Now, I´ve been studying the Lingua Franca concept and the more variety we have, the better.
