Agenda

In recent weeks many of us have had to rise to the challenge of teaching our courses remotely. As the world starts to loosen some of the strict measures that have been in place, the only thing we can be certain of is that the ‘new normal’ will not be exactly the same as the old normal. With some social distancing measures likely to be in place for a while, what does that mean for us? What new skills do we need to best support our students? How can we continue to develop as professionals in the current climate? Macmillan Education is proud to host this special Q&A with Thom Kiddle, Director of NILE – our teacher development partners.

If you have any questions about the skills we need to teach remotely or about how we can develop ourselves in this new normal,  join us during this live session.
