Teaching Specific Domains of English Language Competence (GHR)
In this course we will consider appropriate teaching techniques for young learners of EFL in elementary school and we will take a closer look at the four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. In this context we will work with the current curriculum and deal with several teaching methods and activities.
Active participation in this course is required. Students will be asked to plan and demonstrate specific lessons based on the competence expectations of the curriculum.
