Отзывы о программе «Английский язык для преподавателей»

It was a great experience. I wish I could have more opportunity to communicate with such a wonderful teacher and colleagues offline.

The course was useful and interesting. The teacher, Elena, is very qualified. The group of students consisted of teachers from different departments, at the same time, everyone was united by a high interest in teaching. Part of the study was the exchange of experience. The course was devoted to the features of working with foreign students. The course includes not only English language teaching, but also teaching methodology and psychology.

1) I propose to include in the course division about peculiarities of the English language for scientific articles 2) to include brief division about rules of business correspondence with colleagues and scientific conference-organizing committee, and stuff of scientific journals 3) to include brief division about international rules for a presentation arrangement.

This course is well-balanced, affects different aspects of the teaching process and the features of conducting classes for international students. The course keeps up to date and corresponds to world-wide approaches in teaching students in English. Continue to work with such a variety of technologies and techniques (individual, group work and work with video fragments) aimed at developing English-language skills and abilities of students

For me this course is close to the ideal one and I really appreciate the manner of teaching and the atmosphere. I would like to suggest only one thing – one of my personal problem in English is the lack of lexica, therefor I need a little bit more tasks dedicated to the familiarization with new expressions and idioms. Thank you very much for the course!!!

Dear Elena Gennadievna,
I was enjoying the course immensely, and I wish it was much much longer! I have got so many useful hints and ideas both from you and from the course participants!!!
I did not mark group activities because they were very useful in terms of ideas and communication with my very smart colleagues, but they were hardly of any use in terms of speaking as I was leading almost in every group or pair. I’m not sure it is possible to make language requirements more strict, and probably for colleagues with weaker English skills, communication with those who speak better is very beneficial, but I sometimes found it embarrassing. I do like everyone in the group, but it is very painful to listen to people who distort the language. Maybe it is because of my delicate ear for music. I wonder if it is possible to have a sort of advance course for those who speak freely. I’d love to participate in such course!
