BEST PRACTICES in Working with ELs
|
TESOL Trainers can tailor make any series of Best Practices to accommodate any school.
TESOL Trainers offers short-term teacher training workshops, a longer series of professional development workshops, and even peer coaching intervention through iCOACH© to insure that the practices presented in the training are successfully adopted. Because of the experiential nature of these workshops, teachers put into practice the content of the workshop the very next day. Each principle is highlighted using model lessons, hands-on techniques, and low to no preparation materials for teaching. |
