It’s one of those things. You go through your entire TEFL course learning how to do things the TEFL way, then you start teaching and fall into old habits (sometimes bad ones!). This sort of thing happens to everyone, so, Sandy decided another Workshop was in order!
At nine o’clock in the morning, 16 past TEFL students took their places again to work for a full day in the TEFL Refresher Workshop at Langahead on 4 August.
Beate and Kate teamed up and did Demo lessons, which brought back floods of memories. We then, had a general discussion and Sandy was amazed at how much everyone did remember! Yay. A bit more theory was revisited, including Brock Brady’s “If you aren’t making mistakes, you aren’t trying hard enough!” – an address he gave to the SETI 20th Anniversary last year and to Langahead TEFL students in September last year.
Brock Brady is a leading figure in TESOL in the US and it was a great privilege to have him at our school.
