Course outline
Our five-week 100% online Language Analysis for Teachers course is intended for teachers who wish to brush up their knowledge of grammatical, lexical and discourse systems in English.
It is a combination of the analysis of major linguistic areas, which form the backbone of the course syllabus, with the analysis of areas chosen by participants - so that areas that concern you personally can also be addressed.
Sharing your ideas and experiences with your fellow course participants via our email forum is an integral part of the course - and is also one of the things participants say is both most useful and most fun.
Course content
The areas selected by our tutors include:
- Phrase types (the verb phrase, the noun phrase etc)
- Modality
- Text analysis for cohesion and coherence
- Analysing language as discourse
- Grammatical descriptions (Traditional, Structural, Lexical etc)

The next start dates for this 5-week course are as follows:

Length & time commitment
It is notoriously difficult to predict exactly how many hours an online course will take any given student. For our courses, we believe you should estimate at least 3-4 hours per module for the reading and completion of the tasks set, giving around 30 hours minimum for this particular course.
That estimate excludes the amount of class time you use for experimenting with the ideas and material from the course.
You should aim to complete each course module within 7 to 10 days.

The course tutors are all International House Barcelona CELTA and/or DELTA course tutors with many years of teaching and teacher training experience.
