1. Full-Time course (6 weeks – Monday to Friday)
2. Part-Time course (15 weeks – Sunday)

The Full-Time 6 weeks and Part-Time 15 weeks Module 2 courses will run like our normal face to face course (and can be taken both online. For course content, please visit Delta Course Content or see below.

The 10 week Pre-Module 2 preparation course is aimed at:

Those who were planning to take the course this year

Those who are planning to take the course and want to maximize their chance of successfully passing the course by being ready

Those who started preparing independently and would benefit from discussing their thoughts with peers and tutors

Those who need a more structured approach to the preparation and reading

Those who are not sure whether they are ready to attend the Delta Module 2 course

Module 2 Course Content:

Full-Time and Part-Time format

Assessment for Delta Module 2 takes place mainly through:

Four observed and assessed Language Systems/Skills Assignments (LSAs)
Three of these are internally assessed by course tutors.
The fourth is externally assessed by a Cambridge Assessor.

Each LSA is focused on one of the language skills (Speaking, Listening, Writing, Reading) or systems (Grammar, Lexis, Phonology, Discourse) and consists of:

A background essay of 2,500 words on the focus of the lesson, which …

… analyses it
… considers learning problems associated with it
… describes and evaluates teaching solutions for these

An assessed lesson of between 45 and 60 minutes, complete with an extended lesson plan which includes …

… a rationale for the design of the lesson
… analysis of the target area
… information about the learners

A post-lesson evaluation which reflects on …

… key strengths and areas to work on from the lesson
… the effect of these on the learners/learning
… ideas for further consolidation of lesson aims in future lessons

You also complete a Professional Development Assignment (PDA) in stages over the 8 weeks of the course. It consists of:

Reflection and Action (R&A): This involves reflecting on your beliefs and practices as teachers and begins with a diagnostic observation by a tutor. This is unassessed but the feedback from it will start the process of reflection and action.

Experimental Practice (EP):

In the EP, you try out a teaching approach you are not familiar with. You write a background essay on the underlying rationale of the approach, why you chose it, how you chose to implement it and how successful you feel the experiment was in retrospect. You submit this and your lesson outline for assessment, but the actual lesson is not observed by a tutor, only by one of your peers.

Why choose these courses:

Unique product (Pre-Module 2 Course) – worldwide the success rate on Delta Module 2 courses is not always high. Short and intensive courses could be quite stressful and being better prepared might not only reduce the stress levels and workload, but it can also improve your chances to pass the course successfully and enjoy it more. We’ve been training teachers on the Delta for over 10 years and have long thought a pre-Delta Module 2 preparation course would be really helpful for trainees

Experience – With over ten years of experience training teachers on the Delta, we know how to help our students pass with as high a grade as possible.

Interactivity – we believe in the importance of self-study and flexibility, but we also would like to cater to those who prefer discussing things with each other and the tutor. The forum facility also allows for further interaction and sharing

Individual approach – we provide individual feedback on the submitted documents and the observed lessons. Part of the input is reactive, addressing the issues which are observed in the submitted work and lessons. We also provide an opportunity to discuss things in more detail in individual tutorials (optional, and for an additional fee)
