Teaching and learning in a second language is challenging. Often teachers who have learned English academically are more complex and longwinded in expression than they need to be.

This workshop explores ways to use English for simple, clear and global communication so students can focus on content more, and struggle with understanding language less.

This activity is jointly organised by CoP on English for Professional Development and EDC.
