About Teacher Development Program Webinars
This three‑part webinar series supports educators at every level who are teaching, or preparing to teach, in English. Our team will run through each of the programs, what they entail and the benefits that you'll receive. This is also your chance to ask any questions that you may have about the program.
Each session will focus on a different teaching context:
- EMI-SEd - For secondary school teachers to teach their respective subjects in English.
- EMI-HEd - For higher education academics to teach their respective courses in English
- EMTP: For English-language teachers to improve their teaching practice in English.
All 3 programs share a common goal: helping educators build confidence, apply practical strategies, and create more engaging, student‑centred learning experiences.
