Bridging the gap between school and adulthood

(Magdalena Szewczyk, Pearson)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers 

We teach older teenagers who will soon be leaving school and venturing into the uncharted territory of adulthood. What do we do to ensure that they not only become proficient users of English but they also become fully rounded citizens equipped with soft skills indispensable in their future work places and so critical in life itself? What tools could we take advantage of to make our lives easier as teachers and what is it that we really need to be teaching now? This short presentation will try to give answers to such questions and show that, whatever happens, we as teachers will be ready to support our students in the best way possible, regardless of whether we teach in the classrooms or from our homes.

Product Presentation - Focus 2nd Edition

(Barbora Míková, Ventures Books)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers   Product Presentation

Focus Second Edition is an even richer version of the best-selling  English language learning series for upper secondary students. The new course retains the popular features of the first edition – Word Store (a unique vocabulary building programme) and 3Ms methodology. However, it is enriched with authentic BBC video content and more thorough Use of English preparation to offer everything teachers and students need to achieve success, in and out of the classroom. With Focus Second Edition students will be strong in all language and life skills and well prepared for achieving great exam results. This session is going to explore all the different features Focus Second Edition offers to keep your students engaged and motivated.

Addressing Lexis Across the Competencies

(John Wolf, Pearson)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers 

Versatility pervades all aspects of modern life, from the clothes we wear to the classrooms where we learn. Young people in particular are expected to multi-task, and in turn require the skills to do so proficiently. Foreign languages are no exception, where the lines between language systems and language skills blur on every page of the course book.

In this session we will explore how lexis melts into the four skills areas, and can be exploited to help secondary school learners understand and express their developing ideas. We will look at some practical activities to make the secondary classroom more dynamic, as well as the theory that drives these practices. The activities are inspired by a low-materials, DIY approach to language teaching, and can be adapted to almost any teaching context. This session uses materials from the Pearson course Focus 2nd Edition.

In Search of Truth

(John Wolf, Pearson)

 For Lower-Secondary School Teachers 

In several arenas authenticity poses a challenge nowadays, from scientific communities to the media. We are constantly challenged on what is fact and fiction, and in many cases by people we have never met before. Online communities and subcultures are increasingly multicultural, presenting many of us with a variety of insights and perspectives.

For young people the above predicament means first and foremost being a critical thinker, having the ability to navigate across cultures, and possessing the language skills necessary to communicate. In this workshop we will look at how authentic materials can be utilized in to develop foreign languages, and how various forms of authenticity correspond to developing 21st century skills in the classroom. There will be several practical teaching ideas to give participants something tangible to walk away with, and the workshop will feature material from the Pearson course Wider World

Product Presentation - Roadmap

(Barbora Míková, Ventures Books)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers   Product Presentation

Roadmap is a new eight-level general English course for upper secondaryl students and adults which recognises that every class is different and every learner is unique. Built on specific learning objectives, the course is designed to give learners the language training they need to progress. Relevant, engaging content, flexible structure and extensive support materials make lessons enjoyable for both learners and teachers. In this webinar, I’m going to guide you through Roadmap’s extraordinary structure and give you some tips on how to make the most of it in your classes.
