WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
Native speakers and non-native speakers with an upper-intermediate and above level of English.
• Experienced language teachers who want to become Teacher Trainers
• Those new to teacher training, including Directors of Studies, who want to develop their skills further.
WHAT IS THE RATIONALE FOR THIS COURSE?
The course focuses on ways of helping and training teachers. The content will be practically orientated. You will examine the major differences between language teaching and teacher training, investigate different ways of planning and presenting sessions and enhance your "people skills." By the end of the course you will have covered those key areas necessary to feel more confident either to take up a training position or to develop further in your current role.
At the beginning of your course you will also be given a free copy of "The Teacher Trainer," a Pilgrims resource magazine for teacher trainers.
WHAT ARE THE KEY COURSE CONTENTS?
Materials will be partly customised for the group by the main trainer, supplemented by published materials. The trainer will hold a "needs and wants" session on the first day to ensure the group has a central part to play in negotiating course content.
Topics include:
Plan training sessions which value different learner and learning styles.
Heighten your observation skills and provide valuable feedback on teaching.
Acknowledge and respond to feedback given to you by others.
Listen to people respectfully and communicate sensitively and effectively.
Deal with "difficult people".
Relate to and manage teachers on an individual and team basis.
Develop "teacher autonomy," which encourages continuous, self-determined professional development.
Incorporate core elements from "feeder fields " such as NLP, into your training.
IS THIS THE RIGHT COURSE FOR ME?
Yes, if you want to become a teacher trainer or a mentor.
Yes, if you have recently become a teacher trainer, Senior Teacher or a Director of Studies and wish to develop your skills further and become more confident in your role.
