Language
& Methodology

Consolidating the principles and practice of teaching English to secondary school students and adult learners.


This two-week programme is aimed at non-native English speaking teachers, teacher trainers and educational inspectors.

Our secondary teacher training is tailored to meet the needs of each group. To do this, we ask every student to complete a detailed questionnaire that covers their background, experience, language level and current teaching (or teaching-related) position.

Our experienced teachers then carefully design the course content based on the questionnaire responses from each group. This means that every Advanced Methodology & Language course is bespoke.
