Self-Study Course
Supporting learners with English as an Additional Language (EAL) doesn’t require specialist training — but it does require an understanding of how language and learning work together in the classroom.
This self-study course builds on the foundations of language learning and focuses on practical, classroom-ready strategies that teachers can use immediately, regardless of subject or age group.
Through a series of short videos, guided tasks, and reflection activities, you will explore how to make your teaching more accessible, inclusive, and effective for multilingual learners — without increasing your workload.
What you’ll learn
- How to apply the CREAM principles (Comprehensible Input, Repetition, Experimentation, Association & Adaptation, Meaningful Output) in everyday teaching
- How to structure lessons using the MMM framework (Meet, Manipulate, Make it your own)
- Practical strategies to support understanding, engagement, and language development
- How to design activities that integrate vocabulary, grammar, and content learning
- Ways to adapt your teaching for both primary and secondary learners
How the course works
This is a self-paced course, allowing you to work through the materials at a time that suits you.
Each section includes:
- short, focused video input
- practical classroom examples
- guided reflection tasks
- downloadable handouts for future reference
You’ll also have opportunities to apply what you’ve learned by designing your own lesson ideas, using either your own materials or the course texts provided.
Who this course is for
- Primary and secondary teachers working with EAL learners
- Subject teachers in multilingual classrooms
- Teachers new to EAL who want practical, manageable strategies
- Schools looking for a flexible, accessible CPD option
Why this course?
Rather than adding more to your workload, this course helps you make small, purposeful adjustments to what you already do — improving access to learning for all students, not just those with EAL.
