Not Children Nor Adults: Understanding Teenagers' Learning Process

October 9th 2024, 4.30pm UK time

Leticia Moraes

Teaching teenagers is often seen as a challenge. Much of this perception seems to stem from the way adolescent students are taught, leading to unpredictable reactions and, oftentimes, conflict. This webinar will explore some characteristics of the teenage stage of cognitive development, their implications in the classroom, and some practical ideas on how we can address them to foster a more effective and positive learning process.

Leticia Moraes has been involved in ELT for more than 20 years. Based in Brazil, she is a teacher trainer and materials writer with experience with all ages and levels. In the past years, she has been dealing particularly with issues related to teenage learners, project work, and CLIL. She is a DELTA and ICELT holder, has a BA in English Language and Literature from Universidade de São Paulo, and a postgraduate degree in Distance Learning from Universidade Cruzeiro do Sul. She is currently a managing partner and head of publishing at Troika and Joint Coordinator for the IATEFL YLTSIG.
