The English in the Primary Classroom course at ELC Brighton is eligible for European Union funding through Erasmus+. See here for details of how to apply for EU funding. ELC Brighton is also registered for participation in Erasmus+ and our PIC code is 943968790.
The EPC course is designed to help primary specialists teach English in the primary classroom. Although the main focus is on language teaching methodology, you will have plenty of opportunity to improve your fluency and knowledge of English. The course concentrates on the teaching of grade 3 students and above (ages 8+)
The aim of the course is to enable you to:
- develop your understanding and knowledge of the English language
- gain confidence and fluency for speaking English in the primary classroom
- select, devise and adapt materials for the primary classroom
- experience different aspects of life and culture in the United Kingdom
- select and adapt English songs, games and stories appropriate to the primary classroom
For more detailed information see the Course Overview and Sample Timetable.
Note: The minimum number required for the English in the Primary Classroom is three students. In the event that we receive fewer than three students, please be assured that we will not cancel your booking. Instead, we will give you 20 lessons per week of General English in the morning with 10 lessons in the afternoon focussing on language teaching methodology either in a One-to-One or Two-to-One class, as appropriate.
