Five English teachers from ASPAEN Gimnasio La Fragua attended the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) training course on July 26th, 27th and 28th, 2011. Sessions were held at Universidad Cooperativa language center by the British Council. The course dealt with how the IELTS test is organized and how trainers should prepare exam takers to achieve high results.
The importance of teaching sub-skills was a highlighted component of the training course. Martin Horkley from the British Council leaded the sessions during these three days. ASPAEN Gimnasio La Fragua English teachers had a marvelous opportunity to learn more about the IELTS test, which will be a requirement in the school bilingual program to evaluated teachers’ English level. Moreover, the strategies and techniques learned will be useful for improving the current PET training course given to tenth grade students.
