VVTO in Den Haag?

beheer — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 09:39:03 +0000

Apparently there are almost 600 primary schools in the Netherlands offering VVTO to their pupils. Strangely enough only about 20 of these schools are in the Den Haag region. Considering The Hague is the International City of Justice and Peace this seems somewhat strange to me. Do you have any thoughts on this subject?

Need Teacher Support?

There are already more than 500 VVTO (primary) schools in the Netherlands. That’s a very exciting development in education. Since there are very few teacher training colleges that actually offer any form of training in how to teach English, this is indeed quite amazing. How do they do that? Shouldn’t there be more teacher training and support before schools embark on such an ambitious project? Or at the very least some form of support from native speaker teachers?

Business English

In today’s business environment in the Netherlands, we can no longer escape having to make telephone calls, give presentations or attend meetings in English. Do you feel confident negotiating in English? How do you make your position clear without coming across as being too direct or even rude? Whatever you need to practise, at a time and place that suits your agenda, with your personal, native-speaker teacher. Call BBLC

Cambridge Certificate Courses in your own school?

Do you work in a VVTO or TTO school or are you considering making these changes at your school? If you or your staff are feeling a little unsure about the level of your team’s English perhaps you should consider a refresher course in conversational English, a course in classroom English or a Cambridge Certificate course (FCE/CAE/CPE) taught by Cambridge qualified native speaker teachers. Lessons can even be at your own school either during or after school hours.

Call me to discuss the options.
