Detail
The ALL London Branch was proud to host this free webinar on behalf of ALL nationally. In this session, David Shanks (@HFLanguages) focuses on advice and practical tips for preparing for your NQT year (especially in the current lockdown circumstance) , making the most of your NQT year and becoming an outstanding MFL practitioner. There was also the chance in the follow-up Q&A to have MFL questions answered be they on Target Language, managing marking, pedagogy, work-life balance or anything MFL-related!
This year offers its own particular challenges, and so David addresses this, including covering the following elements:
- getting experience/evidence for QTS
- tips for online teaching
- online interviews
Participants contacted us in advance with questions which you they wanted David to answer, and asked them ‘live’ during the online sessions.
