The essential resource for new and experienced teacher trainers.

This book of ready-to-use teacher training workshops is designed to provide you with a bank of perfectly planned and structured sessions with accompanying photocopiable worksheets. The sessions develop teachers’ knowledge of three key areas: methodology, language and theory. They also encourage teachers to actively reflect on their own prior learning and experience. These workshops are ideal for in-house and in-service teacher training as well as preparation courses for awards such as CELTA, CertTESOL, DELTA and DipTESOL.

Teacher Training Essentials is divided into three distinct sections for ease of use: Classroom methodology, Developing language awareness and Background to teaching.

Each teacher training workshop consists of two to three photocopiable worksheets accompanied by comprehensive trainer’s notes.

The workshops are suitable for a range of teaching experience: pre-service, new in-service and experienced teachers.

Teachers will benefit from learning about teaching methodology in training sessions which are models of good teaching practice.
