How It Works
Language skills
Sourcing the bean
Just as quality beans are essential for coffee, mastering the English language is a teacher's foundation. My approach: group communicative lessons, interactive tasks, and constant language revision.
Methodology
Grinding
As beans transform with grinding, teachers refine their English and delve into teaching methods. Teachers are exposed to practical and innovative ideas during their language classes. Through dedicated methodology inputs, they encounter actionable ideas, which they can bring into their own teaching practice.
Integration and application
Brewing
Through masterminds, teachers practice what they've learned via demos, lesson planning, and peer feedback.
Real-world Teaching
Serving
A coffee's journey culminates in the joy of serving and savoring the cup. Similarly, in our course, this stage is embodied by teachers showcasing their expertise both in regular lessons and during the special spotlight of the ELT charity conference, "I Wish I Knew."
