Upcoming events

Let's talk about...

Each week we'll set a topic to discuss and have a very informal chat in three parts:
1. Question of the week
2. Let's talk about...(topic nominated by Teacher Portal)
3. Any questions about your classes, teaching, career advice, student management or just life in general. (Though we might not be able to answer the life questions, we'll give it a go.)

In this interactive webinar we’ll explore what we mean by mixed level classes and how “being a mix” plays out between learners. We’ll consider the challenges for us and them, by sharing our experiences and talking about how we’ve tried to overcome these. In order to explore the options available to us when working with mixed level classes, we’ll evaluate some common practices. Together we’ll share what we have tried and what’s worked and what has worked less well and consider why. Through practical examples and by focusing on specific activities we’ll consider some possible simple tricks and tweaks we can make to our activity choices, set-up and outcomes. By the end of the webinar, it is hoped that we will have a better understanding of how we can support mixed level classes and maximise participation and learning.
