Dear all, You will be going through your Module Choices this coming Wednesday (18 March 2015). This is to remind you that for Level 6/Year 3 students we have on offer a follow-up teacher training module 1LLT600 which you can take either in Sem 1 or Sem 2 (at least I think you are eligible). Please also watch this PPT presentation to see what TEFL offers to EFL and ESOL teachers. Thank you, MK

1. TEACHING ENGLISH AS A
FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Prepared by Year 1 UG student at UW (permission given to show)
To All Year 2 students who have done 1LLT500: please bear in mind that
in year 3 you can do the extension Teacher Training module: 1LLT600;
this is likely to give you yet another specialism when you graduate
from UW and increase your employability on graduation; you can also
do CELTA this summer externally
