The course is essentially divided into six areas:
Classroom Management
This topic includes classroom arrangement, managing, resource materials, maintaining discipline, giving instructions, the role of student and teacher etc.
Teaching skills
This is a very practical element of the course aimed at building the trainees skills in areas such as teaching grammar, vocabulary, business English, creating own materials, correction skills etc.
Language Awareness
This section of the course aims to consolidate the trainees knowledge of grammar and provide practical ideas as to how it can be taught.
Phonology
Focuses on areas such as pronunciation, stress, intonation, rhythm and the International Phonetic Alphabet.
Unknown Language
Candidates are put into the position of language students and will be taught an unknown foreign language. This gives candidates a chance to view lessons as a student and note techniques used by the teacher when teaching beginners. In Crete, unless a student already has prior knowledge of the language, we world normally use Greek.
Teaching Practice
The most practical and important element of the course. Trainees teach real students of English and put into practice the skills learnt on the course.
