PLAN SMARTER AND GET THE MOST FROM YOUR COURSEBOOK
You may have to use a coursebook you don’t like or that doesn’t fit the time or students you have. You may worry about what to cut to cover the syllabus. You may spend hours searching and copying for little reward. This course addresses these issues and shows how to engage students and add value whatever the material you use.
“It couldn’t be more useful! A lot to think about and start implementing into my teaching.”
Svetlana Majer
Teaching Listening Better
If you have ever felt like your going through the motions in a listening class, or that your course doesn’t really teach students listening skills, then do this course to see what the underlying issues are and how you can make a difference.
“I really loved this course… the hands-on tasks were relevant and raised awareness about how I can expand my listening classes and take them to the next level.”
Milba Benlliure
TEACHING LANGUAGES AT LOW LEVELS
Many teachers are at a loss as how to teach Beginner and Elementary-level learners, while others avoid it because ‘it’s boring’ and ‘always the same’. In this course, you’ll see a better route to enjoy teaching low levels, by helping students engage in genuine communication. Inspire your students to keep going and learn more.
“Great Course. An in-depth examination of teaching at low levels, especially enjoyed the focus on adapting materials and building up dialogues with students”.
Angela McClenaghan
