Teachers Courses

The Refresher Course and Summer Methodology Course are aimed at secondary and adult teachers engaged in planning and/or delivering ELT programmes. Our Refresher Course provides teachers with the opportunity to develop their English language knowledge and skills as well as providing practical teaching techniques. Our Summer Methodology Course focuses purely on learning and teaching methodologies.

Both courses are designed to provide in-service training and/or to be a refresher course for experienced teachers.

The Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) course is aimed at teachers who teach their curriculum subjects wholly or partly in English to learners aged 11 and upwards.
