IGCSE and AS Literature teachers
Very often we, IGCSE and AS Literature teachers, find ourselves struggling to cope with the demands of International exams and a very tight schedule, plus the demands of schools and the desire for our students to achieve significant outcomes and, most importantly, ENJOY our literature lessons. In this very difficult balance we need to make wise choices not to lose sight of any of the objectives and achieve desirable results.
In this workshop we will analyse all these variables that schools, students and teachers need to cope with and then move on to find easy ways out. Text choices will be considered together with ideas of activities, timing and exercises to make the best with what we have. More importantly, this workshop is designed to share our experiences, help ourselves and find solutions to our dilemmas!
