Teacher Refresher Course - TR111 PSA

Our 1 or 2-week course for English language teachers is aimed at providing practical training in the most up-to-date teaching techniques and improving participants' language skills.

The course offers practical training in teaching techniques while also helping participants to improve their own language skills.

Participants explore a wide range of topics including teaching methodology, exploiting and adapting materials, the increased role of technology in the language classroom, classroom management and approaches and activities for teaching all language areas and skills.

Classes on Irish history, culture and the Irish educational system in addition to a full social and activity programme also form part of this intensive and dynamic course.

Participants will also have the opportunity to experience this for themselves through the use of CEC’s E-Learning platform which gives training in web skills through the use of English, neatly combining subject and language acquisition.
