English Language Teaching Seminar

We are glad to announce a new series of seminars devoted to issues in teaching and learning English. During 11 meetings in May-August 2018 we are going to discuss various aspects of effective foreign language learning and teaching. At the end of the series there will be a mini-conference in a TED-talks format where you will get a chance to present your ideas related to the topic.

We welcome anyone interested in the topic and believe it would benefit both secondary school teachers, university professors and learners of English as well. Rcommended level of English to participate is: B2 (Intermediate) and above.

Active participants will receive a signed certificate from the American Center in recognition of attendance.

The questions to discuss on June 28:

• Communicative Approach to Teaching English and How is it Better than other Approaches
• Approaches to English language teaching in retrospect
• Key notions in methodology
• Difference between approaches, methods and techniques
