This tailor-made program was prepared by the i-Learner of Nebula Group Ltd Company for all English teachers of our school on 30th June 2014 (Monday). The programme aimed at upgrading teachers' knowledge and skills in the teaching of English with the new approach named Self-Regulated Learning at secondary level, and also the teaching of Reading in a CMI school. It focused on areas of English language knowledge and skills relevant to the current needs of teachers in the local school sector, with particular emphasis on the implementation of significant changes in the English language curriculum. All English teachers from NWCSS joined the programme and we found that all the demonstrations during the programme enhanced our understanding of the new approach to the teaching of English.
