Overview:

This short introductory course delivered by distance, or over two evenings face to face, is designed to introduce you to basic terminology used to describe language in English language teaching classrooms, give you an overview of parts of speech such as nouns, pronouns, articles, conjunctions, and also develop a solid understanding of the English verb system. It also introduces you to a range of reference materials useful for language analysis in the English as a foreign language field.

The distance delivery mode provides students the flexibility to study at their own pace and in their own environment.The face to face delivery mode will be interactive and trainee-centred, and both modes are designed to build confidence and awareness in approaching the field of English grammar. It will be of interest and benefit to anyone who ‘just can’t remember’ or was never taught grammar at school and is a useful starting point for anyone about to join the world of teaching English as a foreign language.
