The GapGuru TEFL training sessions are the opportunity to meet a qualified teacher
who will share her experience of teaching abroad with you. Future volunteers will
learn how to teach English to foreigners and how to make it amusing for them.
The TEFL course outline is as follows:
• An intensive TEFL course offering a foundation in the essential elements
of English language teaching to young learners in developing countries.
• Classroom ideas where few or no materials are required and teaching practice
in a supportive and interactive environment.
TEFL trainees will cover the following topics:
- An overview of grammar and the relation between structure and function
- Awareness of the problems involved in presenting and practising vocabulary
- A focus on pronunciation
- Lesson planning
- Classroom management and group dynamics
- Correction and recycling techniques
- Using techniques such as singing, simple drama, games and activities with an emphasis
of making teaching fun.
