COURSE OUTLINE

Teacher Refresher: Building Inclusive Classrooms is designed for teachers looking for new ways to engage all learners and create inclusivity in their classrooms. Theories of ‘Social and Emotional Learning’ and ‘Universal Design Learning’ offer exciting new ways to tackle the challenge of engaging diverse learners. This course explores how teachers can adapt these approaches to create collaborative, creative and inclusive classrooms. In particular, participants will explore the latest language teaching methodologies, observe those techniques and strategies at work in our language lessons, analyse their own teaching practices, and develop materials, tools and techniques that they can implement directly into their own teaching. Through workshops, group tasks, and knowledge-sharing activities, we look at how these tools can help create lessons for a diverse range of learners.

Reviews

I could see the change it has made in only five working days, not only in me but also in my colleagues who are less proficient than me in English. Everything has been fantastic; we recommend Atlantic even just for a week, because it makes the difference

Carmela Fiengo

/ Istituto Comprensivo Regina Margherita, Italy

It was raining outside, but once we entered the school, everything changed. The atmosphere was very welcoming and bright, everyone was smiling, and we were welcomed very warmly, as if the sun itself “appeared” in the building

Niculae Catalina

/ Corvinus School of Management, Hungary

Atlantic offers high-quality courses, and they are very professional, highlighting their close treatment and their incredible organisation of the teaching and cultural activities

Mercedes Gimeno Rico

/ Cardenal Herra University, Spain

I would recommend Atlantic as it is really well organised and structured. The information and content are both relevant and challenging. 

Many helpful ideas to put into practice back home.
