It is an approach to teaching that is conversation-driven and focuses on emergent language and student needs over materials. Learning how to make interaction with learners the foundation of your teaching can also help teachers use coursebooks more effectively, create grammar lessons that stick, build literacy, and encourage participation in online lessons.<\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vibe_editor_rich_text\">\n<p style=\"\">Do you want to&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">&#8230;make your lessons more satisfying (for both you and your students)?<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">&#8230;learn how to use your coursebook in ways that better meet your students&#8217; needs?<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">&#8230;know how to build a lesson around emergent language?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vibe_editor_rich_text\">\n<p style=\"\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">If you answered yes to these questions, then this course is for you!<\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">And if you are working with limited resources or technology, you&#8217;ll find this course even more relevant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vibe_editor_rich_text\">\n<blockquote style=\"\"><p>\u2018Dogme language teaching is considered to be both a methodology and a movement\u2019 (Wikipedia).
