IH Practical Teacher
The IH Practical Teacher is a special two week teacher development course for English language teachers. It is aimed at teachers working in the UK or overseas whose first language is not English.
Practical Tips for English Teaching Abroad
In two weeks we will demonstrate practical techniques and approaches for teaching English as a second language.
We cover activities for listening, speaking, reading and writing, as well as showing you how you can use technology to help with English language learning.
We look at the use of songs, games and videos for teaching second language English, as well as task-based learning strategies, and tips for preparing students for exams.

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.
Teaching Languages with Technology
The Blended Cert ICT: Certificate in Teaching Languages with Technology is a brand new course for language teachers. Delivered part online and part face-to-face, the course is validated by Trinity College London. The Blended CertICT will help you use technology in your classroom, and give you lots of techniques to use with your students.
