Exploring Skills-Based Learning in ELT
In this presentation, we will examine the potential of Skills-Based Learning within the context of English Language Teaching. Skills-based learning is a pedagogical approach that emphasizes the development of practical skills over rote memorization. This approach not only enhances language proficiency but also empowers learners to take charge of their learning journey, fostering autonomy and confidence.
The real-classroom examples will highlight the benefits of skills-based learning including improved learner engagement, enhanced language proficiency, and better preparation for real-world communication scenarios.

Differentiated Teaching in the 21st Century
We live in a fast evolving world and it is a challenge for educators to predict what skills and competencies each and every learner will need in the future. To ensure that all students’ needs are met, it is essential that teachers recognize learners’ differences and plan their lessons to cater for everyone.
This webinar will examine strategies that teachers can use to differentiate their teaching practices so that they reach all students regardless of their background in learning English. There will be a focus on ideas that give students voice and choice, empowering them to set their own learning goals to drive them towards learning success.

In these sessions we will draw examples from Oxford University Press coursebooks Beehive, Harmonize, Insight second edition and Life Vision.

All participants will receive certificates of attendance and one-month online access to all levels of Beehive, Harmonize, Insight second edition and Life Vision sponsored by Oxford University Press.
