Quality English Language Teaching – need of the hour!
New Delhi, Delhi, India/Businesswire India//– A market report (2011) by IMRB on Teacher Training in India, indicates that 63% of teachers in private schools feel that English Language Teaching (ELT) training is a necessary part of professional development. Macmillan Education, a global ELT and Curriculum company, is working to remedy this in the K–12 segment, through its English Language Teaching resources and teacher training programmes.
In Hyderabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru, New Delhi and other cities of India, English teachers from over 400 leading schools participated in prestigious ELT workshops conducted by Macmillan Education. The workshops were conducted by the international ELT trainer Alan Mackenzie, Associate Director at Norwich Institute for Language Education (NILE), United Kingdom. Alan, with his extensive experience in Teacher Training programmes across British Council offices in East Asia and India, introduced the course on ‘Teaching Young Learners’. He covered Various Approaches to Language Teaching and Receptive Skills in Language Learning.
