The "Teaching English to Refugees and Displaced Learners" course provides educators with comprehensive strategies to create a trauma-sensitive learning environment tailored for refugee and displaced students. This course emphasizes the importance of understanding the unique challenges these learners face, including cultural adaptation, language barriers, and the psychological impact of displacement. It equips teachers with practical tools to manage challenging behaviors effectively, fostering an inclusive and supportive classroom atmosphere. Additionally, the course highlights creative teaching methods that leverage limited resources, ensuring educational equity for all students. By completing this course, educators are better prepared to empower their students to thrive academically and personally, despite the adversities they may have encountered. #TraumaSensitiveEd #EducateDisplaced #RefugeeEducation #DisplacedLearners #HopefulLearning #PedagogiesForDisplaced #GenerationalTrauma #EpigeneticsAndEducation #TechnologyInEducation

TeachingEnglish | British Council - Middle East and North Africa offers a plethora of events, learning and teaching resources, also a platform to connect with Educators and English Teachers globally to share knowledge and ideas, thus providing me opportunities to grow and advance further in my career as an EFL teacher. 'Teaching English to refugees and displaced learners' has been one of the most challenging short courses I've done so far, compared with other 12 hour Teaching courses. Although many might disagree on its level of difficulty, to my cognizance, 'Trauma' discussed in the lessons were either new or normalcy in the environment for most of the civilians that grew in my birth country. It wasn't a surprise why i kept repeating the same quiz over and over, then reading through lessons repeatedly to realise that incidents of trauma have been desensitized with the education and nurture of upbringing. Here I share with much delight, certifications of two more valuable teacher training courses with successful completion. #britishcouncil #teachingenglish #knowledgeispower

I draw much inspiration for my work around integrated literacy from Australia. Many of their units are 1) interdisciplinary, 2) integrative of learning, literacy, and language (at all levels of meaning, from discourse down to phonemes), 3) pursue learning goals that have relevance outside the classroom. https://lnkd.in/gJ9E-BTK
