The opportunity for language teachers to spend some time in a country where their language is spoken is one which is highly valued as a way of updating linguistic skills and knowledge of the culture. Often the period is short, but whatever the length, teachers need to profit from the stay as much as possible. The argument in this article is that through the ethnographic interview teachers can gain a deeper understanding of an aspect of a foreign culture from an insider viewpoint, and simultaneously learn how to analyse and interpret the insider account from an observer's perspective. Teachers will then be in a position to mediate and interpret for their learners, and to provide them with data and techniques for developing their own understanding independently. The article describes materials developed for in-service training and a phot course which tested them with a group of Irish teachers about to spend some time in France.
