Bespoke CPD

ELT well workshops offer you the chance to explore the issues whenever and wherever suits you, making professional development as easy as 1-2-3:

  1. choose the topic/s you want to explore
  2. decide how long the workshop/s should be (half a day, an evening, a whole day, a weekend…)
  3. hold them in your own venue, or come to Morecambe for a real break from your normal routine.
    Sessions can also be run online, using Zoom, or your own online platform.

jumbled sentences activity The focus of our workshops is always on practical approaches to working with learners and how you can make a difference in your classroom. However, all workshops cover enough of the theoretical background to help you understand which strategies and techniques may succeed better than others in your context.

Examples of half-day workshops:

  • Identifying dyslexia (and other specific learning differences) in English language learners
  • Supporting dyslexic language learners
  • Memory strategies for language learners
  • Developing phonological awareness
  • Raising awareness of specific learning differences among teachers and peers
  • After Assessment – giving feedback and setting up interventions after a formal assessment

Your choice of any two of the half-day options can be combined into a whole day workshop, OR suggest your own programme, which can be tailored to suit the particular needs of your school or department.
