“TKT is a series of modular teaching qualifications which test your knowledge in specific areas of English language teaching. It will help you build your confidence, and is a cost-effective way to get an internationally recognized qualification. Whether you are a new teacher or have years of experience, TKT is ideal for people who need to prove their teaching knowledge with a globally recognised certificate.” (Cambridge ESOL)
In this module we will cover important aspects related to describing language and language skills, background to language learning and background to language teaching.
The focus of this module is on planning and preparing a lesson or sequence of lessons, selection and use of resources.
This is the part of the course where we will work with teacher’ and learners’ language in the classroom, and classroom management.
I’ve been preparing for the TKT with Andréia since the beginning of the semester, and all I have to say is that it’s been a great pleasure to be part of our group! We feel so very comfortable to share our struggles and doubts. Andréia encourages us to think and rethink our teaching strategies and improve our skills! This course is not only about the TKT but also about how to become better ELT professionals as well! I highly recommend her courses!

Sou professora de inglês no ensino superior, no curso de Letras Inglês e fiz o preparatório para o TKT principalmente para praticar meu inglês, mas encontrei muito mais que isso. Revisitei conceitos e termos essenciais para a minha profissão e descobri estratégias para facilitar e aperfeiçoar meu trabalho. No final, o que era para ser apenas um preparatório, se tornou uma fonte de novas ideias e inspirações.
