Teaching Gender-Inclusive Language 

A Course by Dr. Jenny Santilli 

Teach Gender Inclusive Language without feeling overwhelmed, pressured, or confused about where to begin.

NOT SURE ABOUT HOW TO PRESENT Gender-Inclusive Language?


Imagine walking into your next department or administration meeting comfortable with discussing the topic of gender-inclusive language and quickly answering any questions your colleagues or administrators have.

And all because you know how to...

Explain why some teachers are for teaching gender-inclusive (GI) language and some are against it.

Share why you believe gender-inclusive language should be part of your teaching.

Walk your colleagues through the steps of which GI language to introduce to your students (and easily explain the main structures that exist).

Respond to inquiries from parents, department heads, administrators and even your own students about GI language.

You might be thinking:


  • I’m not really sure if I should even be teaching this.
  • Where do I begin, to make an informed decision?
  • What if the parents or my administrators are against this?
  • Are there any guides or tools available to me?

No Worries! 

WE WALK YOU THROUGH EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
