In this session we provide an overview of the General English course Roadmap and how it is suited for online classes. We start by briefly summarising the research that influenced the design of the course, before looking at the twin track approach to teaching speaking and the other skills, and how to teach those online. We also show how it provides a great degree of flexibility to help you navigate the different needs of your learners and teaching environment.

This webinar is designed to help you feel more confident teaching using flipped learning. We look at how to flip your classroom for the first time with tips on what to tell your students and/or their parents.

Finally, we discuss student motivation and how we can support all of our learners all of the time.
With the pandemic continuing to limit face-to-face interactions, many of our adult (and new graduate) students will be facing the already stressful interview process online. Interviewing via video conference or submitting a video of themselves as part of the process has already become the new norm. This is daunting for the best of us and potentially doubly-worrying for non-native English speakers.
This session provides practical tips and strategies to support teachers in helping students overcome interview anxiety and better prepare for online job interviews in English.

This talk shares practical ways for teachers to make StartUp more successful in the online classroom for themselves and their students.

We explore how this platform enhances both the classroom and self-study experiences and how technology can enable high-stakes test preparation.
