Engaging online learning experience
Our training are designed for language teachers and schools, but they are suitable also for any educators, freelancers and corporates interested in discovering how to efficiently work remotely and how to give interactive and engaging online lessons, training sessions or webinars. All our training and webinars can be given in Italian, Dutch or English and tailored to your needs.
Our online teaching Journey
It all started back in Bulgaria around 2015, we were working at a language school in Sofia. There were Dutch learners who couldn’t easily reach one of the few Dutch schools in the whole country, and a student of Italian living in Sofia but regularly spending long periods at home in Greece. All good reasons to get trained in online teaching and directly apply the tips in our first online lessons.
We have always been used in including interactive activities in our lessons since our first experience with interactive whiteboards including several tools and games to improve student engagement, performance and learning experiences. We realised that it was a useful resource for online teaching, too! And we started investigating alternatives, accessible from anywhere and requiring no software to download.
Shortly afterwards we left Sofia, but we kept on working remotely for the same school giving online lessons from home, from our next and temporary home in Italy.
Online Teaching with zoom
For Teachers and Schools
After a short introduction to online teaching, we immediately start using Zoom. Everyone gets a number of tasks to perform and with this you discover the most important settings and functions of Zoom, including the chat, screen and audio sharing, and the break-out rooms. Then we discuss more possibilities of Zoom, such as making polls and remote control. In addition, we give you some concrete examples of interactive language activities using Zoom features that make our online lessons fun and engaging.
