  5. IMPORTANT POINTS • Teacher Development • Methodology – I want you to discover a more communicative way to teach your classes. I will show you some techniques, but most importantly I hope you develop your own methods. • Language Skills – This is not an English Language class. I will not teach you grammar and vocabulary. I will help you improve your English skills by practicing and challenging you with difficult teaching topics. And, we will also practice how to teach reading, writing, listening, and speaking. • Course Design • 60 hours of class time + 10 hours of portfolio preparation + homework assignments

Books let you learn about the world even when you can’t travel. Please finish this for HOMEWORK. Metaphor 4 reasons PICTURE
