The Department of Modern Languages is running an intensive two-day course designed for international academics whose first language is not English and who are delivering degree programmes and presenting research through the medium of English.
The course will consist of a dynamic mix of presentations, discussion, group work and individual support. It will include an initial analysis of participants’ needs so that course activities can be tailored, as far as possible, to individual requirements.
What you can expect to learn:
By the end of the session you will
- Be more confident in using English in the lecture theatre and the seminar room
- Be able to support the language needs of your international students
- Be more confident in giving papers and presentations at conferences
- Be aware of the ways in which you can raise your profile through English
Date: Tuesday 10 June 2014, 9.30-17.30 & Wednesday 11 June, 9.30-17.30
Course fee: £250 for Southampton staff (standard fee: £400)
Led by: Mary Page, Senior Language Teaching Fellow
