Omer Alhadi tells us how the TeachingEnglish programme has helped him improve his teaching. He uses new methods to keep his secondary school students engaged and ensure they understand the material.
Omer, a teacher and teacher educator from Sudan who has been teaching English since 1996, faces significant challenges in his secondary classroom. His biggest challenge is keeping all students engaged and ensuring they understand the material at different levels. He needs better ways to support his diverse learners.
He has found the TeachingEnglish offer to be the most impactful resource. The TeachingEnglish webinars provide him with new teaching strategies, practical tools, and better ways to support diverse learners in the classroom.
As a result, Omer has started using more interactive and student-centred activities. This has made his lessons more engaging and has helped students participate more actively and understand the material better.
He’s also started using new digital tools like interactive presentation platforms and online assessment apps. These tools have made his lessons more engaging and allow him to check understanding quickly and give faster feedback, which has improved students’ learning.
Participating in the TeachingEnglish programme has strengthened Omer’s professional growth by expanding his teaching skills and improving his confidence. It has helped him develop a more reflective and innovative approach to his work.
‘Participating in the webinars has completely reshaped the way I approach classroom management.’ - Omer Alhadi, Teacher and Teacher Educator, Sudan
