Programma
Want to focus on the content of your classes without having to worry about your English? This one-day workshop covers some important language-related aspects of CLIL teaching in English that will increase your confidence and make your lessons more effective.
To teach your lessons clearly and effectively, you’ll need to use classroom phrases and vocabulary that are correct and natural. The workshop includes lots of exercises and activities to help you practise using typical classroom phrases for giving instructions, setting homework, giving encouragement, and so on. You’ll receive a Dutch-English list of classroom vocabulary, such as ‘continuous assessment’, ‘invigilate’, etc., which we’ll work through together. The course materials will also include a list of phrases your pupils might need to use (e.g. ‘When is the homework due?’).
Referring to structure explicitly makes it easier for your pupils to follow and remember your lessons. We’ll practise using a variety of linking words and signposts that will guide your pupils through your lessons (e.g. ‘Having looked at […], let’s now move on to […]’; ‘On the contrary’).
We’ll also give you the chance to improve your English proficiency: the workshop will include lots of awareness-raising exercises and activities to help you avoid making typical mistakes in English. We’ll focus on typical grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation pitfalls that are often encountered by Dutch speakers in a teaching context (e.g. ‘do vs. *make homework’, ‘One in three pupils do vs. *does not know […]’).
By the end of the workshop, you’ll feel more at ease and proficient while teaching in English, fostering a dynamic and engaging learning environment.
