TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)

Andrea Littlewood BA, RSA DELTA is Head of Young Learners at Hyland Language Centre, Madrid

As teachers we aim to keep our children engaged and motivated with a variety of tasks that cater for their learning styles. In this session we'll be looking at ways in which music, mime and movement can help us achieve our aims and maximise participation whether we're dealing with skills work, language presentations, pronunciation activities or classroom management.

With more focus being put on CLIL in the ESL classroom, teachers are faced with having to become experts in the world around us. As the subject of ‘Health’ appears frequently in course books, why not take the students even further and teach them how to save lives? This workshop focuses on key methods for incorporating this into the classroom.

It's important to keep kids curious and incorporate the things in their world in your lesson planning. So, this workshop will give you practical ideas for using drama in the classroom with primary and secondary students, with the help of new technologies.

Do you find that your classes are too teacher-centred? Are you too dependent on materials? In this session we'll look at a new approach to teaching which is materials-light, conversation-driven and learner-centred. There will be practical ideas to use with General English classes of all levels so come ready to participate!
