Course outline Prices & course dates

This immersive and interesting Advancing your Professional Practice (creative methodology) 10-day course will allow participants to develop English skills and personal classroom practice through trainer-led lectures and practical-based sessions. Having the opportunity to share your ideas with others and then actually deliver them in ‘mini lessons’ makes our course something unique and extremely appealing to the can-do teacher.

Participants are expected to take a full and active part in all aspects of the course in order to maximise the teaching and learning opportunities on offer. A wide range of ideas will be explored, creating a forum for experienced classroom practitioners to share and discuss teaching in the modern age.

Working with our enthusiastic and professional practitioners, a wide range of stimulating ideas will be considered to produce engaging and relevant lesson content .

Course content will include the main topic areas:

Creative Classrooms

A plethora of ideas will be explored, including games, drama, music and art-based activities, to turn dry coursebook content into kinaesthetic, fun and memorable learning experiences.

Future Focus

Throughout the course you will also:

  • evaluate and develop your own teaching techniques and personal practice
  • be actively involved in your own lifelong learning journey
  • discuss and critique your own ideas with other professionals in your field
