Words of wisdom

By three methods me may learn wisdom: first, by reflection, which is noblest, second, by imitation, which is the easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest. (Confucius)

Teacher Training can be seen as the process of equipping an individual with the means to carry out the job of teaching. This is normally done by means of a course of training that presents the individual with a series of skills that meet the requirements of different aspects of teaching. In the specific field of language teaching, these would consist of skills and techniques to teach grammar, lexis, pronunciation, reading, writing, listening and speaking, plus the more general skills involved in classroom management.

"Teacher development is the process of becoming the best teacher one is able to be, a process that can be started but never finished"
