Students start learning to teach
1st November 2018
Ten Melbourn students from Year 9 attended the launch of the Language Leaders programme on at Murray Edwards College in Cambridge this week.
The programme trains keen linguists to deliver lessons to primary school children in the language of their choice.
After an interesting tour of the College, students learnt how important language learning is to the future of the United Kingdom and their own careers.
They were then given an insight into their own personalities and how they can use their strengths to best advantage, as well as a few tips on how to present themselves in the classroom and become reflective teachers of languages.
The day ended on a very positive note with students from different schools working together as teams to solve problems.
