THE DOGME BOOK CLUB

/PROFESSIONALDEVELOPMENT

This is a session designed to explore how the principles of Dogme ELT—such as emergent language, minimal reliance on materials, and a focus on meaningful interaction—can be effectively applied to the context of exam preparation.

Participants will engage in a material-light demonstration lesson, reflect on the affordances and challenges of this approach, and examine practical strategies for integrating authentic material into lessons aimed at high-stakes language exams. The session aims to support teachers in developing responsive, learner-centered practices that align with exam goals while preserving communicative spontaneity.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have a clearer understanding of how to balance structure and flexibility, and how to design exam-focused lessons that grow organically from student needs and classroom interaction.

WHEN?

July 19th, 2025 via Zoom

WHAT TIME?

From 9am to 1pm BRT (GMT-3)

The recording will be available for 30 days, starting 48 hours after the session.
