This course aims to enable teachers to distinguish between some of the most known methods and approaches (MAs), providing insights into what classes using specific MAs look like in practice. It explores the benefits and limitations of each MA studied and encourages teachers to experiment with different MAs in their own classrooms.
The course has three tutors: Gabriela Fróes, Hellen Haga and Sergio Pantoja.
The course will take place on Saturday mornings from 10:00 to 11:30 (Brasilia time).
