Where and When
The course will be taught online in a virtual classroom. Participants can be from all over the world and you can attend from the comfort of your own home without having to travel. The subject of Grammar, is well suited to online work as it does not involve teaching or observing teachers, although participants may be asked to observe a selection of videotaped grammar lessons to raise their awareness of how theoretical knowledge is translated into classroom practice.
Depending on the location of the participants, sessions will be offered at times convenient to their time zones.
