Тема вебінару: It’s all in the task! How to keep your teenage students focused and engaged.(за підручником “Get Involved”)

One of the biggest challenges for teaching teenagers is their motivation – or the lack thereof.  Many students are simply reluctant to take active part in the lesson and are unwilling to make any effort, either in class or outside. And to be honest, there are few things, if any, that we can realistically do to motivate teenagers at a deeper level. There are, however, some sensible measures we can take to make sure students follow our instructions and do the tasks we actually want them to do. One of those measures is allowing learners to choose which activities they want to do in the classroom, and which they want to do as homework. If you want to know more such tricks, join my session on August the 27^th!

Тема вебінару: How to make sense of global skills behind your teenage classroom doors? (за підручником “Gateway to the World”)

Global skills, also known as 21^st century skills, have been all the rage in recent years, not least because of the widely quoted UN Sustainable Development Goals. Attractive as they sound, they may also feel rather far-fetched and difficult to make sense of in a typical teenage classroom.

In this highly practical session, I’ll demonstrate how to actually work with a selection of these ‘global skills’ on a local, classroom scale, using range of tried-and-tested, engaging activities for your teens. My main point will be to demonstrate how – by including such modern activities in a systematic manner – we can bring the language syllabus to a completely new, highly relevant level.
