<p> ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) TUTOR WORKSHOPS April - June 2012</p><p>Tutors at WEA Highland will deliver a series of ESOL tutor training / CPD workshops from April to June 2012. The workshops are stand-alone and cover themes aimed at supporting tutors who are teaching ESOL learners in the area. They also provide opportunities for tutors to network.</p><p>The topic/content of each workshop has been inspired by workshops and presentations we attended at the IATEFL (International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language) conference, held in Glasgow in March 2012. We hope to cascade some of the more interesting and inspiring ideas from the conference.</p><p>DATES & TOPICS: </p><p>Friday 27 April 13:00 – 15:00 - Using songs, lyrics and music trivia in the ESOL classroom.
