The four workshops

Each workshop stands on its own. Join one, or take all four.

Workshop 01

Classroom Management

Thu 5 Nov 2026

Learn how to set clear expectations, routines and instructions so your classroom runs smoothly without constantly asking students to be quiet. Practise with real classroom scenarios and leave with strategies you can use in your next lesson.

Workshop 02

Interactive Teaching

Thu 14 Jan 2027

Move from passive to active learning by increasing student speaking time and turning ordinary worksheets into pair and group activities. Explore practical strategies, and what to do when an activity doesn't work.

Workshop 03

Supporting SEN Learners

Thu 25 Feb 2027

Understand the range of learning needs you may meet in an English classroom, and learn practical strategies such as chunking, visual support and scaffolding. Adapt an existing activity to make it more accessible without redesigning the whole lesson.

Workshop 04

AI for Teachers

Thu 15 Apr 2027

Use AI to support lesson planning, differentiation and reflection, while building the judgement to check whether AI output is suitable for your students. Try it hands-on with your own lesson material.
