The course aims at helping the students to synthesize pieces of theoretical knowledge on ELT methodology they have assembled throughout the study program, to deepen them, and to become aware of and explicitly form their individual approach to teaching English to young learners. They will also further develop their ability to critically analyze their teaching experience, identify problem areas and ask relevant questions. The course guides the participants through the process of writing their final project, which represents the author's emerging personal approach to teaching English to young learners, both in theory and practice. The final project has the form of a professional portfolio and it contains the following components: 1. An essay entitled 'Ten essential principles for teaching English to young learners’ 2. Observation forms and synthesis of observations 3. A detailed lesson plan 4. A detailed reflection of a lesson video in the A-A-A format 5. Items selected by the author
