How to build learners’ confidence and help them manage their stress when teaching exam classes.

About the webinar

For many learners of English exams and exam preparation is stressful, but an inescapable part of life.

In this practical session, Anna Hasper explores the key ingredients of effective exam preparation classes that help our learners achieve excellent exam results, but that also help them develop useful life skills to manage their stress and wellbeing in exam preparation courses. Viewers will come away with a framework of key ingredients for effective exam classes as well as with practical activities they can use with their leaner’s to better enable learners to manage wellbeing and stress levels.
