IIEEC - Oxford University Press Teacher Training Certificate Program


Course Content
  • Workshop content has been developed by Ritsuko Nakata (Co-Author, Let's Go) in cooperation with Oxford University Press and is aimed at all teachers of young learners who wish to become more confident and effective teachers.
  • Workshops are run by qualified teacher-trainers from the IIEEC Teacher Training Center - a leader in teacher training and children's education in Japan since 1987.
  • In addition to the lectures, skills practice will provide actual lessons in how to use flash cards and how to teach effectively with the MAT METHOD.
  • The course is conducted in English, however bilingual course handouts will be provided.
Course Structure
The course is comprised of six Workshops that are offered at various times during the year. Participants have the flexibility of attending the Workshops in the order that best fits their schedule; however, participants must complete the full program within two consecutive sessions in order to qualify for the certificates. As proof of attendance, participants will receive a stamp card that will be stamped at the completion of each Workshop.

Certificate of Attendance
Those participants that attend all six Workshops and complete a final self-assessment component are eligible to receive a Certificate of Attendance from Oxford University in the United Kingdom and from the IIEEC Teacher Training Center.
