Title: Ready-to-Use Activities for All Languages, Modes and Proficiency Levels
Description:
This full-day, hands-on workshop will give you practical strategies and activities grounded in communicative language teaching, comprehensible input, and acquisition-driven instruction.
You’ll see activities for all three communication modes—interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational— that you can adapt to fit your classroom and curriculum. For each activity, you’ll get the why, the how, and examples across proficiency levels, plus editable templates so you can personalize and use them right away. Whether you’re looking to deepen your practice or refresh your approach, you’ll walk away with strategies that connect directly to your curriculum and empower students to grow in proficiency and communicate with confidence. Join us for a dynamic, supportive day full of collaboration, creativity, and actionable ideas you can use tomorrow.
