ETVET Course design consultancy
Case Study: Djibouti 2020-2021
Day ELT Ltd conducted a five-month consultancy for the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training of Djibouti, on behalf of the British Council.
The aim was to help the Ministry to create the country's first ESP/ETVET course, English for Transport and Logistics in Djibouti, for students aged 14 - 16 in vocational colleges.
During the consultancy, we trained a local writing team in ESP course design and materials development, and then supported them intensely as they were creating the course materials.
ESP Teacher training
Case Study: Iraq 2022
Day ELT Ltd led a teacher training event in Erbil, Iraq, on behalf of the British Council and LearnJam.
The aim was to train a group of teachers from three Iraqi cities to enable them to teach a course we had helped to develop, English for Freelancers. The course is designed to help people to find work and build a career on international tech freelancer platforms.
The teacher training course included a significant focus on the flipped classroom approach ... and how to make a success of it.
Curriculum development consultancy
Case Study: Egypt 2022
Jeremy served as a consultant on a project to develop a new English curriculum for Egyptian preparatory schools.
As part of this project, he travelled to Alexandria, Egypt, to present the draft curriculum to the CCIMD (Centre for Curriculum and Instructional Materials Development department), part of the Egyptian Ministry of Education and Technical Education, on behalf of York Press.
In addition to his work on the English curriculum, Jeremy has also been involved in developing a new Career Skills curriculum for Egyptian schools, as part of a major new focus on TVET.
