The course is highly interactive, practice-based, and performance-driven.

Each session combines:

• Short, focused input
• Guided speaking practice
• Real teaching simulations (micro-teaching)
• Immediate feedback from the instructor and peers

Participants will:

• Record and analyze their own speaking
• Apply communication strategies to real teaching scenarios
• Engage in live activities using tools such as Poll Everywhere and Mentimeter

The course follows a progressive structure, allowing participants to build fluency, clarity, and confidence step by step.

The Main Objective of the Course:

To transform how instructors teach in English by developing their ability to deliver clear, structured, and effective instruction in multilingual classrooms—moving beyond language fluency to achieve real student understanding and engagement in an English-Medium Instruction (EMI) context.
