TITLE: ENGLISH LANGUAGE SUMMER ACADEMY

This academy aims to bring together professionals with an English language background and provide participants with a detailed insight on various elements that have to do with English language, English language teaching/learning, English language culture, challenges and solutions and so on. Panelists will share their experiences and their views on different aspects of this language whereas participants will benefit a lot from these discussions and think of ways how to make improvements in their contexts. The overall idea of this academy is to inspire participants regarding the big impact they may have in making small changes by providing them with different information and open their horizon. This way, they are expected to cascade that knowledge in their contexts and gradually make not only themselves but also their working or learning environment a better place to be.

Upon completion participants will be able to:

• envision their educational role for a changed world
• identify core issues in assessing students in the context of pandemics
• explore ways how to teach second language to learners/students with Special Educational Needs

• expand and enrich their views on intercultural communication
