Teaching Skills: Teaching Phonics to Young Learners

Not all learners are the same, and need different levels of support. This session provides information and tools on how to identify, manage and assist learners who need extra care in the classroom. You will be given a range of tools and support mechanisms and well as resources to make sure all learners have the same start in their educational lives.

For the best experience, attendees should have:

• a computer or ipad style device (a phone will also work)

• stable internet access

• a headset with microphone

• a webcam

Attendees will also receive a certificate of attendance which includes the number of teaching hours.
