ADDRESSED TO
EFL teachers and teachers in English programs (secciones bilingües/atal elebidunak, British, etc.) with a C1 level of English. A minimum of 15 participants is required.
Provided that they have a C1 level, other teachers may also apply. Teachers that belong to this category must send us a copy of their English degree BEFORE September 29th to the following address: . Failure to do so will result in the automatic rejection of the applicant.
JUSTIFICATION
As languages are a priority for the Department of Education, we propose an activity that contributes to the development of English as a means for communication and helps individuals to increase their communicative competence in English.
AIMS
· To correct teachers own pronunciation.
· To improve communicative competence through oral production.
· To get to know different aspects of English culture.
· To provide the teachers with a range of specific vocabulary
CONTENTS
· Correction of accent, rhythm, pronunciation and oral production.
· Pronunciation and phonics practise.
· Aspects of culture in English speaking countries.
· Current issues in the mass media.
METHODOLOGY
The course involves many speaking games that hopefully teachers can reuse in their classrooms. We also focus on aspects of listening that are the flipside of speaking: difficult sounds, difficult word linking, and stress. We do this in a fun, creative way and follow a t.v. series throughout the course looking at the difficult aspects of speaking/listening.
TEACHER
Alasdair Macaulay has taught English, Music and Music Technology for many years in Africa, England and now Spain. One of his main objectives is to merge English teaching with the arts, and he thus places an emphasis on creativity and learning in the classroom. He has developed his website for kids with this in mind: www.txikismikis.com.
