Colleagues in SSSHL are providing the following session – Questions of English in the Classroom
Teesside University aims to be a global institution that provides an excellent international experience through partnerships and networks across the world, for example through diversifying and enriching the University by recruiting students and staff from across the world and encouraging students to become global citizens by creating international opportunities throughout their university experience.
The accompanying drive for internationalising learning and teaching at the University leads to an essential discussion regarding the English which is used in the classroom by both tutors and learners.
In this session, ‘Questions of English in the classroom’, staff from the English Language Centre will guide an exploration of approaches to effective communication, how audience and purpose play a role in this consideration and what strategies can be used to promote better understanding for all students.
