How will this course help you develop?

This CLIL course will give you a solid grounding in CLIL if you are a newly qualified teacher entering this branch of ELT and it will help you develop existing skills if you already work in this sector. You will look at how to incorporate EFL (English as a Foreign Language) techniques into subject teaching to aid learner understanding of instructions, materials and explanations. You will also look at materials creation, how to develop learner autonomy, theories of second language acquisition and how they link to CLIL. This course will equip you to operate more effectively in this context and also encourage you to take elements of it into general primary and secondary teaching.
