FOREIGN LANGUAGE TUITION
You will receive lessons in an unknown foreign language to show you how simple it can be to learn a language from scratch. There will be no English spoken so you can gain insight into the methods used in TEFL, when there are no common words between teacher and pupil. This will also allow you to ‘experience it from the other side’, giving you an emphatic understanding of the difficulties your future pupils may encounter.
