At the B2 CEFR level, learners understand complex texts, both concrete and abstract, and engage in fluent and spontaneous interactions with native speakers. They can produce detailed texts, presenting viewpoints on a wide range of subjects and considering different options.
This engaging and fun course uses the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna (Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain) as content and aims at developing academic and language teachers’ knowledge of planning, preparing, and implementing reading, writing, listening, and speaking activities for non-native speakers of a language in their classrooms.
It also takes a multidisciplinary approach to understanding CLIL (or content-based) methodology and introduces course participants to how the theory of teaching language and specific course content (academic or otherwise) can relate to their own classroom practice.
This course includes lots of activity planning, CLIL resources, and aids in the preparation of creative and engaging materials for second or foreign-language learners of any language.
By the end of the course, participants will learn the key principles of material development and how to integrate attractive content into effective second-language teaching. Participants will become more aware of how to create appropriate activities that are also motivating and engaging to non-native speakers of a language.
Both academic content and language teachers will feel more confident and inspired to teach their subjects. Participants will also leave Tenerife having learned more about the history, nature, people, culture, and places that have made the Canary Islands a very unique location.
