Dear Colleagues!
Language Link Rostov invites you to a one-of-a-kind event for teachers of English. Lindsay Clandfield Workshop to be held online.
Language Link Rostov — is one of the best teacher training centres in Europe. People from all over the world come to our school to do CELTA, Delta,
CELT-P/S courses.
On May,17th our highly-qualified teacher trainers are going to share their expertise in ELT. Join our conference to learn about the best practices in teaching.
Practical activities for Online Teaching — a session full of activities that are suitable for online teaching. We will look at activities that work best in asynchronous mode (not everyone is online at the same time for example in a forum or social media group) and in synchronous mode (where everyone is online at the same time, for example in a videoconference). We will look at the pros and cons of each, and also at ways of assessing work that occurs online.
Using your course book online and offline teaching in practice — This session will begin with a full 45 minute demonstration of an English lesson from a course book, with you as the students! Following the lesson we will discuss what the experience was like, and how we can do different aspects of our teaching in live sessions.

I’m originally from England, but I grew up and went to school in Canada. After finishing my studies at the University of Toronto and getting my teaching certificate I began my language teaching career in the south of Mexico. A few years later I moved to Spain with my family and began training teachers in Barcelona. I started writing material in 2000 and moved to the south of Spain in 2004, where I live now. My writing and training work take me all over the world to conferences and training events. I’ve written more than fifteen books for language learners, co-written four books for language teachers and founded numerous online projects including the blog Six Things and the e-publishing collective the round.

Webinar description:
If the methodology doesn’t seem to work and all the efforts don’t bear fruit, it’s high time to reflect on the students we teach.
What should we know about a 21st century student ?
What do they actually need to learn and what we, as their teachers, need to develop in them?
These are just some of the questions we are going to look in on our webinar. Join in!
