Unlocking real communication in your young learners’ classroom.  

 In the young learners classroom, language should be more than just words on a page—it should be a bridge to real, genuine communication. This webinar explores how you as an English teacher can transform your classrooms into dynamic learning lands, where every lesson is an opportunity for meaningful interaction. We’ll discuss how to prioritize speaking skills, integrate communication into all aspects of language learning, and create engaging lessons that not only teach English but also expand your students’ general knowledge. Come along to discover practical strategies for fostering natural, purposeful communication that will keep your students motivated and makes language learning come to life in your YL classroom!

Teaching grammar for communication to your Young Learners

Grammar is more than just rules—it’s the foundation of meaningful communication, allowing even very young learners to express their needs, feelings, and observations. In this session, we’ll explore how to bring grammar to life in your classroom through engaging, interactive activities that get your students talking, actively listening to each other, and connecting. From creative pair and group tasks to short, purposeful video clips that spark conversation, we’ll dive into practical strategies to help your students use grammar meaningfully in real-world contexts. Whether you’re using digital tools or traditional methods, I will show you how to prioritise communication while keeping grammar at the heart of learning. As always, get ready for a good bunch of classroom-tested tasks you can start using the next day!
