Webinar TESOL Italy

Are we equipping our students for 21st century challenges?

As language teachers, we aim to give our students everything they need to achieve a high level of language competence. However, being a successful student is not just about knowledge. It is also about being able to perform as responsible citizens, to communicate effectively not just talking in a grammatically correct way. It is about thinking critically and creatively to find solutions and opportunities. We should be able to support our students to enhance the life skills that are needed, no matter what their life journey will be. The combination of a comprehensive life skills framework and the knowledge of some coaching techniques is the language teacher’s trump card. We can be not only language teachers but also life competencies enhancers! The session will focus on 21st century competencies and how we are integrating them in the language classroom.
