Advanced Conversation for Teachers – ELT Edition
Boost Your Language Skills and Advance Your Career with Our Expert-Led Courses!
Who is this course for?
Advanced Conversation for Teachers: ELT Edition is designed for English teachers at C1 and C2 level who want to develop their spoken English through meaningful discussions about teaching, learning, and classroom decision-making.
Instead of discussing general topics, participants will explore real dilemmas in ELT, such as motivation, student-centered teaching, personalization, pronunciation, PPP, Dogme, AI, and the search for the “perfect method.”
The course offers you the opportunity to expand your professional vocabulary and discuss issues that directly connect to your classroom practice.
Why choose this course?

- You’ll discuss topics such as motivation, student-centered teaching, personalization, PPP, Dogme, pronunciation work, AI, and the search for the “perfect method.”
- All slides and worksheets are included at no extra cost.
- Each session is recorded and available for one week, so you can catch up if you miss a live lesson.
