LEARNING TO TEACH: TEACHING TO LEARN

Abstract

The title of this working document encompasses two intimately interconnected and inseparable aspects of our profession: improving our daily teaching and leading the students to learn how to learn. They are so closely linked together that it is always a point of discussion which one should go first. The reason is that if we genuinely believe it is our duty to turn the students into independent, responsible and efficient learners, it is first necessary that we the teachers develop and practise the same learning styles. Thus we advocate for teachers who practise the theory supporting our profession that they can become models worth being followed initially, but encouraging of further learning in the students beyond our presence or influence. Learning to teach conveys, on the one hand, what the authors of this document consider should be the core of our work as both pre-service teacher trainers and as promoters of in-service education. Throughout this document, we have attempted to cater for the sector of ELT in Colombia that had somehow been neglected in the project before and which is the vast number of teachers already working in both primary and secondary school nation-wide.
