Continued Professional Development for English Teachers

Grade A TEFL student!
Well done to Alicia Garcia Moya on achieving a grade A in her recent Teaching English as a Foreign Language course (TEFL). The 140 hour course was undertaken on-line with Star TEFL- UK  Ltd. and adds to Alicia's already impressive qualifications.

Alicia said "I'm very proud ,as a Spanish person, to do so well on this course. These courses are normally designed for native speakers so I am very happy to have achieved such good results."

At El Centro de Ingles (Caravaca) we endeavour to ensure that all our teachers have at least140 hours of TEFL training and are currently enrolling all our teachers on Cambridge English Teacher continued professional development programmes.

Alicia's certificate 
You can rest assured that we take CPD very seriously to ensure that the teaching that is provided is up to date and professional.

Christmas Radio Show 2012

Last night (11/12/12) was our  last English show on Caravaca Radio for 2012. We had the usual features of celebrity birthdays (Frank Sinatra, Jermaine Jackson and Gonzalo Higuain the Real Madrid Footballer), grammar points and this week we played a podacst from the BBC all about Christmas traditions in Britain. We also played the Coldplay song Christmas Lights, which according to the Seville based English teacher Barry O'Leary is a great song to help students with their listening skills and useful for connected speech. For more information click the link to Barry's blog here: http://teachingenglishinaforeignland.blogspot.com.es/2012/12/esl-songs-coldplay-christmas-lights.html
So, enjoy the show and if we don't have another chance to say it we hope that you and your families have a very Merry Christmas and a wealthy and healthy 2013!
