What is this webinar about?

Helping young learners develop speaking skills is key to building confidence and communication. This webinar focuses on practical strategies for creating an engaging classroom environment and supporting teachers in building their own confidence to teach and assess speaking effectively. We’ll explore techniques for encouraging interaction through simple, structured activities, scaffolding language with prompts and visuals, and balancing fluency with accuracy. Gain insights into assessment approaches that make progress visible and meaningful. These strategies also help learners preparing for Cambridge English exams (Pre A1 Starters–A2 Flyers). Join us to equip teachers and students with lifelong skills to develop confident communication.
