Effective development of speaking skills requires a number of carefully planned stages, including learning from a model, analysing which elements make up the conversation or dialogue, and then working on subskills to equip learners to speak at length with accuracy and fluency. This workshop is for anyone who wants to know more about what to expect in the CertTESOL course or who would like to brush up on teaching skills.

In this online workshop, we will cover key skills and strategies that contribute towards the smooth running of an engaging, language rich classroom.
