Classroom Skills for Secondary Teachers

Classroom Skills for Secondary Teachers is a special two week teaching development course for English language teachers. It is aimed at teachers working in the UK or overseas whose first language is not English.

Classroom Skills for Secondary Teachers is a very practical course in which we look at the different communication skills for teaching children (10-12 years) and teenagers (13-15 years).

We will show you some of the best ways to practise English language skills with your students, and give you techniques for improving their pronunciation. The course will also demonstrate effective teaching classroom management.

We also evaluate the teaching materials available for this age range to help you choose the best resources for planning and delivering your own English language lessons.

How We Teach

At International House London, we focus on communication and speaking, with student to student interaction being used rather than a more traditional lecturing approach. This makes our English and Modern Language courses both exciting and rewarding, with progress being made very quickly.
