Plenary

The Art of Giving Good Instructions

Abstract


Perhaps more than most professions, English language teachers should be really really good at giving clear, comprehensible instructions. And most of the time this is true! In this practical workshop for language teachers of all languages we’ll review and reexamine best practices for giving instructions for activities, both spoken and written and online. But we’ll also look at how this is a useful and important skill for our learners and practical ways we can help the develop it.
