Teaching Young Learners

Teaching Young Learners

The course is mindful of the changing needs and abilities of young learners as they get older, and looks both at the questions of how children learn at different ages – and also what they learn. The role of the teacher is defined not only as an instructor, but also as a guide. Children can learn grammar, vocabulary, reading and speaking, but they also learn about themselves and about the world, through stories, games and other classroom activities. Whether you are new to teaching young learners, or an experienced practitioner in this age group, the course offers food for thought, practical resources, and an opportunity for reflection and discussion.
