Join us for our ELTAS Summer Workshop Potluck!
At this year’s ELTAS Summer Workshop, we’re doing something a little different. Our mainstage speaker, Rachel Paling, will address the ICF Common Core Competencies integrated into language learning. Later we’ll have a 30-minute Business Impact book teaser by Klett. This will be an outdoor, but tent-covered event – keeping Murphy’s law in mind! There will be tables and chairs so that you can be comfortable taking notes on what the speaker presents.
We’ll start off with our potluck at 1 pm and enjoy a summer lunch. Our mainstage speaker, Rachel Paling, will be starting at 2 pm. Klett will have a table with books and later will give a teaser presentation on their new book Business Impact. So bring a little something, come and enjoy an informative, yet relaxing, networking and professional development event!
The ELTAS Summer Workshop: International Coaching Federation (ICF) Common Core Competencies integrated into language learning.
There are aspects of professional coaching that can be incorporated into language teaching. In particular, ICF core competencies which were updated in 2020 can be fully integrated into the language learning process, to really enhance the learning; making it more effective and efficient. In addition, we’ll work on the structure of the goal and action setting plus periodic goal reviews, added to the use of coaching models and the PACT PQC for grammar and non grammar.
In this ELTAS summer workshop, teachers will learn tips to bring these ICF professional coaching competences and conversations into the classroom, helping to navigate emotional triggers and blocks with compassionate conversations and also how to understand what professional coaching competences are and how to apply them in our daily lessons.
