0114 days
Almost 40 English Language Teaching videos our teachers used to show in class are now donated to the Centre for Rehabilitation and Social integration of the Visually-Impaired. They run English language classes there, as well as film clubs. They will use the videos for the activities organised at the centre for those who are visually-impaired, or have some residual vision. For their film club, each film is shown with audio description/commentary to help aid understanding.
Около 40 видеоклипа за обучение по английски език, които нашите учители са използвали за уроците си, вече са на разположение на Центъра за социална рехабилитация и интеграция на хора с увредено зрение.

Видеоклиповете ще бъдат използвани за дейностите, организирани от центъра за хора с увредено зрение или с някакво остатъчно зрение.

Eleven classroom assistants gain valuable experience at the British Council
0117 days
Classroom assistant Lori Todorova assists Senior Teacher Young Learners, Richard Cherry, with level Junior 9.
In British Council teaching centres around the world, classroom assistants enhance the classroom experience of thousands of Young Learners. This term, The Sofia teaching centre is trialling classroom assistants in our Primary and Junior classes.
Classroom assistants add value to Young Learner classes by supporting our teachers in a ‘background role’ – for example, by helping to distribute classroom materials, and by providing extra supervision as young people move around our building. Classroom assistants also provide children with valuable role-models of expert English language users, and support our 100% English language policy. Of course, the preparation and teaching of classes remains the sole responsibility of the British Council’s own highly qualified and experienced teaching staff.
Eleven young English language undergraduates from Sofia University and the New Bulgarian University are participating enthusiastically in the trial. Observing British Council teachers at work allows the classroom assistant to gain useful experience for their future teaching careers, and marks a new level of co-operation between the British Council and tertiary English educators in this country.
Our students and their teachers have responded very positively to the presence of classroom assistants in the British Council teaching environment, and we look forward to introducing new ways to add value to our Young Learner courses in 2012.
