Teaching English focuses on the communication skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing, which must be developed in an effective EFL classroom. But how can these skills be improved and developed? Which methods and approaches are useful to ensure students improve these abilities?
This course will look at techniques that help teachers plan and teach the crucial English language skills in the foreign language classroom. Active participation and creative contributions are vital to the success of this seminar.

Trebits:

Learning a foreign language in school can be influenced by many exciting factors. What are students most likely to pay attention to in class? How much of what we "teach" can they really be expected to remember? How to use prior knowledge to ensure that students can effectively integrate new information? What individual characteristics may cloud our - and our students' - judgement when we evaluate and grade? How to make grading and assessment more meaningful and equitable? In this class we will explore all these questions and more about how teachers can create a more effective, more enjoyable and more lasting learning experience!
