About the Workshop with Tina
In this workshop, teachers will learn strategies to provide more interaction and communication in the language classroom. You will learn strategies to work with themes and topics from any source — a textbook, a curriculum, AP/IB themes, or any topic that you want to teach your students. You will learn literacy strategies and ways to address grammar in context as well as the explicit teaching of grammar. You will also learn ways to scaffold student speech and writing to lead them to higher levels of language performance.
