Dear Colleagues, We are delighted to invite you to our next Chinese teacher's workshop taking place on Saturday 21 March at the University of Keele, Staffordshire. This one day workshop will address how teachers of Chinese can work effectively with beginner level students, and provide practical tips for managing different learner styles and keeping learners engaged. In the first session, Trainer Dr. Zhu Zhu will focus on first lessons with beginner level students. She will look specifically at pace and practice, and introduce practical ideas of what to teach beginners early on, and how. Next, Lecturer Emily Ouyang of the University of Keele will demonstrate a short lesson with students from the university. In the final session, Trainer Helen Day will explore how to improve your classroom management techniques with the aim of keeping learners engaged, despite different interests and learning-styles. This is a FREE workshop and is suitable for teachers working at secondary, and college/university level, as well as teachers working in adult learning. It is jointly sponsored by Macmillan Education and the University of Keele.
