What our students say:
“I recently completed the Teaching Lexically course and want to express my deep gratitude to Hugh Dellar and Andrew Walkley. You are amazing tutors! Knowledgeable, enthusiastic and dedicated, a good example to follow. The whole course was well-structured, full of practical tasks and useful input. We had sessions on teaching all skills and systems with lexical approach. I found lots of interesting and handy tips which I could implement in my teaching style, I would say, in my teaching lexically style.”
“A couple of days ago I returned from London, where I took the course “Teaching Lexically” with Hugh Dellar and Andrew Walkley – the authors of really great coursebook Outcomes. It was really unforgettable experience for me – two weeks of useful and helpful information which I’m sure will help me to become a better teacher, amazing lecturers – Hugh and Andrew – who told us a lot of interesting things and always patiently answered all our endless questions, communication with colleagues and sharing our experience.”
There is a registration fee of £80 on top of all prices that covers all materials, admin and entrance fees for timetabled activities.
