Webinar - Enhancing Proficiency Level: A Road MUST Travel

Описание: English Language Teaching Centre (ELTC) would like to invite everyone to join our webinar entitled “Enhancing Proficiency Level: A Road MUST Travel”. We aim to highlight the Pro-ELT Enhance Proficiency programme, which is specifically designed to assist English language teachers to achieve a minimum CEFR C1. A representative of the facilitator and a course participant are invited to share their experiences facilitating and participating in the programme. It is hoped that with this sharing of information, more English language teachers would be eager to partake in the programme to further improve their language proficiency level for the benefit of their pupils and themselves. “When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too” - Paulo Coelho.
