TÉMATA SEMINÁŘŮ:

Exam stress relief! (Tonya Trappe, PEARSON)
1st Morning session: 10:20 - 11:20 Classroom B

2nd Morning session: 11:40 - 12:40 Classroom B

A student’s entire future can hinge on performance in an exam. This means that preparing them is a huge responsibility and potentially very stressful task for the teacher.  Students therefore understandably suffer from extreme tension as exams approach and teachers may also be under pressure from the school and parents as well as the students themselves to produce excellent results. My talk will explore ways to limit unproductive and unnecessary stress. We will look at ways to make the exam prep classroom a peaceful, positive and above all, productive experience for both the teacher and the student.

Shakespeare in Business (Tonya Trappe, PEARSON)
Closing Plenary, 15:00 - 16:00

The highly acclaimed British business Guru, Richard Olivier, son of Laurance Oliver, recently created a new form of "arts based learning" that uses Shakespeare's plots to focus on leadership skills when training future business leaders. In the US, Carole and Kenneth Adleman train US business people and politicians to be more effective communicators by studying Shakespeare. This exciting new trend in business is an opportunity for Business English teachers to introduce high culture into their classrooms.
This talk will demonstrate how teachers can introduce both the langauge and plots of the most famous Shakespearian plays into their classrooms without being experts on Shakespeare themselves.

Learning is adventure! (Lenka Zouhar Ludvíková, PEARSON)
1st Morning Session 10:20 - 11:20 Classroom C

2nd Morning Session 11:40 - 12:40 Classroom C

Primary school age is a period when children love stories and their heroes. Finding these heroes in a coursebook may work as strong motivation in itself. Moreover, if the teachers succeed in applying different pace and approach in teaching their pupils, they help them find their own learning style. This seminar is designed for primary school teachers and will offer ideas how to use learners´ self-reflection and support their autonomy from early age.
