TESOL-SPAIN Regional Event at UAB Languages Barcelona
TESOL-SPAIN Regional Event, focused on senior students.
19/04/2017
UAB Languages Barcelona, Casa Convalescència, will host once again the TESOL-SPAIN Regional Event on Friday 19th May 2017.
UAB Languages Barcelona have been specialists in teaching senior students (students over 50 years old) for over 10 years. We now have around 200 senior students in more than 15 groups and our teachers presenting the TESOL Reginal event, Mark McKinnon and Kieran Donaghy, are experts in the field of life long language learning. They are language teachers of senior students, teacher trainers and materials writers, who both present at international conferences.
Kieran Donaghy will give an overview on older learners, their reasons for studying a foreign language, the benefits of learning a foreign language for seniors, myths about seniors, and how teachers can adapt methodology and learning space to meet the needs of older students. Mark McKinnon will focus on how teachers can adapt methodology and materials to maximise senior learning and build trust between the teacher and students.
