Description of the course

The course emphasizes 1.the psychological aspects of language teaching (TEFL/TESOL) and 2.a functional conception of applied linguistics, based on the Prague Functional Linguistic School. 3.the pedagogical aspects of the course are based mainly on the principles of modern European pedagogy (esp. CEFR), modern Anglo-Saxon pedagogy and on the classical pedagogical principles. This programme is comparable to other European and Aglo-Saxon university TEFL/TESOL programmes, covering standard FLT topics such as: the linguistic, psychological, pedagogical, sociological and other aspects of language teaching; FLT/ELT factors; methods (also in the historical perspective) and esp. modern methods, including alternative M, as they are used in TEFL/TESOL worldwide; teaching materials; class organization and control; teacher and learner training - yet, the course is in its reflection of the PFLS and the Czech FL teaching tradition quite unique and specific.
The course is completed with a teaching practice, which requires a minimum of 14-20 lessons taught in a state or private school in the second cycle under the guidance of a mentor.

ELT courses are held in the winter and summer semesters in stage II (4th year of study), one 3hour unit per week. Seminars include a short lecture, video+textbook presentations, followed by their analysis and discussion; practical work/workshop.
Examination, PP, diploma and seminar works.
