Ep 32: André Alipio on Training Parents to Support Young Learners Online

Expand Your Horizons Season 2 Episode 32

This week's podcast guest is André Alipio. 

André has been the Director of Studies at GTP, Global Teaching Practice, for 10 years now. He has also been a teacher trainer since 1995, working for different institutes in Brazil, including International House Sao Paulo. As the director of studies, he is responsible for designing and delivering a range of courses for teachers of English, as well as training tutors for those courses. 

André is an active CELTA and DELTA trainer, and has trained on courses in Brazil, Mexico, Venezuela, and other countries. He is also a local trainer for ETS products like TOEFL Junior. More recently, André has been developing ELT materials and consulting to the educational market in general. 

Today, André joins me for a conversation that is certainly relevant to anyone who works with young learners or has children who are currently learning at home. At the time of recording this, schools around the world are temporarily closed due to the covid-19 pandemic, and students are currently learning from home by attending their normal classes online. In this episode, André shares practical strategies for how we, as teachers, can help train parents to support their children in online learning.
