Multiple Ways of Using Video in English Classes

(Jarmila Tomanová, Ventures Books)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers 

Do you sometimes feel that your English lessons could be more enjoyable? Use videos as a source of authentic material providing us with real-life situations. Apart from listening experience, students can see gestures, body language and the whole interaction between the involved parties which help them develop their communication and business skills. In this workshop, we are going to explore different wayshow videos can be used for teaching business and general English. I am going to share some tips which are beneficial in classes with both experienced professionals as well as students preparing for their future careers.

Teaching Teenagers: “If Being a Teenager is Hard, Teaching Them is Harder?“

(Zuzana Pohlová, Ventures Books)

 For Lower-Secondary School Teachers 

If you have been assigned a group of teens, do not despair! Teens are as enjoyable as any other age group! An important aspect of teaching teenagers is getting their attention and keeping it. How? Let´s find out. In this seminar I´ll show you some practical tips how to make your classes enjoyable for you and your teens.

Fun with Grammar

(Judita Tóthová, Ventures Books)

 For Lower-Secondary School Teachers 

Learning grammar does not only have to be about learning grammar rules, but it can also be a creative and entertaining activity. In the seminar I would like to give you some practical tips, ideas on how to teach students to communicate through grammar structures and consequently overcome the prejudices that the concept of grammar entails.

Stay on a High Note

(Zuzana Pohlová, Ventures Books)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers   Product Presentation

High Note is an intensive course for upper-secondary students. It equips students with language skills alongside the life and career competencies that are indispensable to succeed in exams, in the workplace and in their future lives. High Note is unique for its video package or Life Skills development programme which includes academic, career-related, or personal development skills. This workshop is an opportunity to find out more about this completely new course for ambitious students and ambitious teachers.

Personalisation with Upper-Secondary learners: pitfalls and solutions

(Daniel Brayshaw, Pearson)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers 

Most of us will agree that a pinch of personalisation is an important ingredient in a successful, modern foreign language programme. Drawing on our students’ experiences as the context for language learning helps facilitate social interaction, encourages memorisation, and allows space for empathy and creativity in our classrooms. However, a student-led approach is not without its risks and challenges, so in this practical and informative session we will look at solutions to common pitfalls and try out some time-saving ideas for activities that draw on our students’ individual experiences as a context for the exploration of new language. The session will be informed by ideas and activities from Pearson’s new upper-secondary course, High Note, which was co-authored by the presenter.

Using Authentic Materials with Teens

(Radka Malá, Pearson/Ventures Books)

 For Upper-Secondary School Teachers

Authentic material in ESL lessons for teenagers? Motivating, fun, meaningful! And… tricky. In this workshop, we’ll talk about how to choose and work with the right videos and vocabulary so that your students are hooked and take something away from the experience, using the new High Note and Focus 2nd edition series. Roll your sleeves up and get ready to try out some practical activities yourself!

Mentoring and Moulding the Modern Teenager

(Philip Warwick, Pearson)

 For Lower-Secondary School Teachers 

The days when language learning was just a memory exercise are long gone, we don’t need to create a generation of producers when we have machines that can do it far better than us. Instead we need to foster the creative, nurture the communicative and grow the individual. This is no mean feat, and in order to equip our students with the skills they need to succeed in the modern world, we should use materials that focus on life and career competencies that not only help the students pass exams but also transfer into the workplace and their future lives.

Shifting goals and Changing focus

(Philip Warwick, Pearson)

 For All 

They often say that 21st century students are being taught by 20th century teachers in 19th century buildings according to  18th century principles, and now that almost 20% of the 21stcentury is over maybe it's time to reflect on how much our teaching has really changed and how much it is just a digital copy of the same thing we've been doing for years. Here we will consider what the future of ELT holds and how we should change our perspectives to offer a viable future for our profession.

English Language - a Tool for Learning

(Danka Sekerková, Pearson/Ventures Books)

 For Lower-Secondary School Teachers 

CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is sometimes wrongly believed to be used to teach some other subjects via English language, which is only one aspect of this method. Underlying principles of CLIL, its strengths as well as weaknesses are going to be introduced during the seminar. Moreover, you are going to see examples of CLIL activities and ready-made handouts will be prepared for you.
