An Introduction to Language Teaching

Catalog description

This course introduces the key components of language teaching to students who have an interest in teaching languages and who may wish to engage in language teaching assignments either during or after their DKU studies. Based on the Cambridge English Teaching Framework and using English as the main language of focus, the course is rooted in pedagogical theory focusing on practical knowledge and teaching skills that can be easily applied to the teaching of various languages (i.e. not only teaching English). The primary objective of the course is to build students' awareness of what effective language teaching is and to equip them with the essential skills needed to start teaching. 001628
