The aim of the course is to facilitate the development of the teaching and learning of English through the use of the target language to teach other subjects across the curriculum (CLIL / Bi-lingual education). The focus of the course is very firmly on developing practical ideas for the classroom. Input will be provided in a variety of ways (including seminars and practical workshops, trainer summaries and demonstrations) that take account of the course participants’ different learning preferences and styles. Participants will be encouraged to share their own ideas and experience, and develop networks with participants from other countries.T he course is designed for non-native teachers involved in CLIL and bi-lingual education. All participants should have a standard of English which will enable them to participate effectively in the course. They are advised to have a level approximate to B2 on the Council of Europe Framework (Upper Intermediate, Cambridge FCE, IELTS 5.5).
There will be opportunities throughout the course to exploit the UK context by collecting relevant authentic materials, making contact with native speakers and taking part in the school’s social and cultural programme, and outings.
Participants will be encouraged to explore how the practical ideas presented can be incorporated into their teaching context. Participants will have the opportunity to observe classes with our adult learners in a variety of possible areas (General English, Exam Preparation and Business English as appropriate).
