Coaches for Teachers


No Support ...

If you are working successfully as a freelance language teacher you are carrying a great responsibility for your own professional development all alone. You have no organisation or institution arranging seminars or workshops for you, no one to watch you at work in your classroom and to discuss what they saw with you.

 

+ Tight Schedule ...

Perhaps in addition to this you are not able to make space in your calendar for a longer training course, or perhaps your schedule is so unpredictable as to make your ability to attend regular weekly training sessions as offered by teacher's associations a matter of chance.

 

= Solution

We have supported teachers in exactly this position for many years, acting as coaches who can make time when it is convenient for you to discuss real-life issues that affect your teaching and your classes in a way that can have a real and immediate impact on your teaching after you go on to your next class.

Listen to a teacher describe how we have supported him as part of his busy professional life.

 

Possible options

How we can support you is only limited by what you would like us to do for you.  For example, we could:

 

watch you work with your classes and give feedback

support you in course design

expand your knowledge of areas such as effective ESP methodology

support your preparation to work with a new client

help you reflect on your work and professional development

 

All this and more could become a complement to your regular classroom life.  And you may be surprised how affordable such individualised support can be - feel free to contact us for a no-strings discussion.
