Event
HomeMotivating Learners to Speak; followed by Bonenkai (end-of-year party)
Saturday, December 2nd, 2017, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Speaker: Rob Peacock (sponsored by Oxford University Press)
In this session we will take some time to discuss the difficulties which learners face when developing their productive skills, and then look at some effective methods to motivate students to speak out. I will illustrate those methods by running through some practical classroom activities using the third edition of Smart Choice. Finally, I will introduce some online material which can be used on both PCs and mobile devices to increase exposure to English outside of the classroom.
