Dr Rachel Hawkes is, without doubt, one of the most inspirational, influential,kind and generous MFL teachers in this country. She's the queen of the TES, she's the President of ALL this year and her resources are used by pretty much every department across the country at one time or another.
And she's coming to Devon.
On Friday 14th February Rachel will be presenting 2 keynotes at an Association for Language Learning conference I have had the pleasure of organising with Newton Abbot College. She will also be presenting a workshop session on "Classroom Talk- spontaneity and challenge". We are delighted that Caroline Grant and Nina Elliot, truly inspirational figures, will also be running workshops. As will I.
The focus of the day is about finding ways to empower students. How to give them the tools to interact and use language creatively, but also ideas to get the students doing the work rather than the teacher, developing their independence. Crucially, Caroline will also be running a session on differentiation to enable every student to maximise their learning potential.
It's also pretty cheap (which I like!), especially if you're already a member of ALL. It will be £90 for non-members and £30 for members, whilst for students it will be £30 for non-members and £10 for members. Non-members will receive a year's membership for signing up.
For more details and a booking form please e-mail kwest@nacollege.devon.sch.uk who has done a great job in organising the day!
