Abstract	In this article, the author reflects on statement six of the Australian Association for the Teaching of English (AATE) "Statements of Belief". Statement 6 says, "We are committed to ongoing learning communities especially through active participation in a range of professional communities." The author discusses this statement by way of his own professional history. He discusses the pedagogy of "productive talk", the social nature of learning, the "idea" of a professional learning community, and the idea of teaching as a "collegial" and a "collaborative" profession.
