Presenter: Salvador Montaner Villalba

Duration: 60 minutes

Abstract: 

Course Introduction: Teacher Training Course (TTC) is generally an initial training course for teachers of English as a second/foreign language who have little or no experience in the profession. Its general aim is to develop language awareness and practical skills to provide novice teachers with knowledge, resources and above all confidence to stand up in front of an EFL learners.

Recent development in the field of language learning and teaching has proved that the cognitive development of young learners (YLs) is strikingly different compared to that of adults and thus makes learning and teaching quite different in YLs. On the other hand, most of the teacher training courses including CELTA, TEFL, and TESOL focus hugely on training adults. It seems vital to address the unmet needs of the pre- and in-service teachers who are working with the YLs.
