Speaking Time! How to teach speaking.
Date
Saturday 20 January 2024 to Saturday 09 March 2024
Location
Poznań, Warsaw, Kraków

All teachers would like their students to be able to speak English fluently and have a rich vocabulary range as well as an impressive variety of grammar structures. What is more, we would like them to pass their exams with flying colors no matter if they are at A2, B1, B2 or C1 level. 

We invite all primary and secondary school teachers as well as those teaching at language schools and freelance teachers to join us at this event!

In this hands-on workshop we will demonstrate practical exercises that can be used as a successful preparation tool, focus on the assessment criteria and give you some helpful tips on how to boost your students’ confidence, improve speaking skills and score well in their exams.

The workshops were divided into two separate panels corresponding to the criteria for levels A2/B1 and B2/C1. You can take part in only one panel or in both. The number of places is limited. After completing the workshop, each participant will receive a certificate.

The worshops will take place in 3 cities:
