Teacher Training Workshops

I deliver language teacher workshops for educational institutions and business. Below is a sample of the workshops that I currently offer.

Workshop 1. HELPING STUDENTS TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL INDEPENDENT LANGUAGE LEARNERS   

The workshop is an introduction to language learning strategies (LLS) that help students to learn a foreign language more effectively, gain self-confidence, and enjoy learning. We explore: 

• Why it is so important to teach LLS
• What LLS we should teach 
• How we can easily teach LLS in our lessons

We also look at feedback given by students after going through LLS training.

Workshop 2. THE GOLDEN KEYS TO EXCELLENT SPEAKING SKILLS 

In the workshop, we talk about key LLS that enable students to develop speaking skills effectively and with enjoyment. We discuss: 

• What difficulties students experience with speaking skills
• What key strategies help them to develop excellent fluency and accuracy 
• How we can teach these key strategies

And we look at feedback given by students after receiving LLS training. 

Workshop 3. ACHIEVING MORE SUCCESS WITH REVISION CARDS 

We explore how revision cards help students to resolve the lexical and grammatical challenges they experience when learning a foreign language. We discuss: 

• What research has found about revision cards
• How we design effective revision cards 
• How we can teach how to use revison cards in our courses

We also look at examples of cards made by students and feedback given by students on studying with revision cards.
