Academic Skills in English Summer School

  • 19 – 23 July 2021
  • MU Language Centre, Brno

The Summer School is designed for teachers, lecturers and academics delivering their degree programmes to multi-cultural groups through the medium of English.

This Summer School offers training to professionals who are in search of ways of improving their teaching repertoire, who would like to gain more insight into English as a medium of instruction, develop materials for their courses in English and reflect on their teaching practice. The Summer School workshops include topics such as teaching in different university programmes in English, academic styles, oral academic communication, academic writing, assessment skills, materials development and intercultural communication.

The course will be taught on-line via ZOOM, or in-person, depending on the current government restrictions.

DIVYA MADHAVAN BROCHIER
"I am the founder and head of the Academic Writing Center at CentraleSupelec, Université Paris-Saclay. I help postgraduates and researchers in the engineering sciences, become bolder writers and better communicators. As of September 2020, I also took over the running of the Teacher Development Cluster, which takes care of the whole teaching community from early-career professional development, to instructional design and pedagogical partnerships at the European level."
