Session 1 Bring your learning into FOCUS – by Vaughan Jones In our experience, students learn best when a lesson combines motivating material with memorable exposure to language through a series of meaningful tasks. Motivation, Memory and Meaning – ‘the 3 Ms’ – are therefore the foundation stones of FOCUS, our new upper secondary course. This practical session will explore ways in which topics, texts and tasks can reflect these priorities and help teachers to create the optimum classroom conditions for learning to take place.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”6387″ img_size=”medium”][vc_column_text]Phil Warwick

Session 2
Let’s get them talking – placing emphasis on production – by Philip Warwick There’s always a feeling that students still see English as a content driven subject with lots of words and grammatical structures to learn and a course book to follow and be tested on, sometimes getting them to see English as a skill, a device to get them communicating and a tool to aid their progress through tertiary education. In this session we’ll look at some practical activities we can use to get the students using English in the classroom and focusing on improving their productive skills.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
