A four-part teacher training workshop
As teachers we know that our teaching practice is an ever-evolving, multi-faceted thing. By this definition, it can never be ‘complete’ or finished, because we are constantly adapting to new student needs and personalities, consistently implementing new activities and technologies. And yet in spite of this openness, this very necessary incompletion of our craft, as it were, our goal—in our steadfast efforts to best serve our students—remains the same: we keep reaching to be complete teachers.
We will cover warmers, giving corrective feedback, and approaches to teaching grammar in these workshops. Participants who attend all four sessions will receive a Certificate of Completion for, aptly enough, The Complete Teacher.
Session 4: Reading Like You Mean It (part 2)’
In this session we will work on some reading strategies—skimming, scanning, and jigsaw—that can assist our students when time is tight and steep is the mountain of reading material. We will wrap-up with a review game that enables our students to pool their new knowledge from the readings and make it stick.
