From 11 to 13 July, our director Begoña Llovet took part in the courseSucceeding in the foreign language teaching market: assessing options and making decisions. This was a course organised by the Instituto Cervantes as part of the 2016 Summer Courses at the Complutense University of Madrid, in San Lorenzo de El Escorial.
The course aims to present a multidisciplinary perspective on foreign language teaching. Aimed at second language teachers, teacher trainers, educational centres, educational programme managers, institutions dedicated to the language teaching sector, as well as publishers in the ELE environment, the course exposed how to evaluate the language and how to design effective programmes that direct teaching and learning to form competent and competitive users; how to evaluate commercial options to promote a commercial action and a product sale focused on growth; and finally, how to evaluate the opportunities of the labour market offering teachers a training oriented to the current professional environment.
