IH Newcastle is one of the most prestigious teacher training centres in the UK and has offered training to over 5,000 teachers since 1990.
All our trainers are CELTA and DELTA qualified and specialise in English language as well as a range of specialist teachers’ courses including; CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) for state school teachers, Advanced Methodology and EAL (English as an Additional language) courses.
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) Methodology
This course aims to train teachers in the methodology of CLIL . It combines a focus on developing an understanding of the key principles and terminology of CLIL with an emphasis on exploring practical ideas to help better integrate the teaching of language and content in the classroom. The group input sessions follow a loop input structure so course participants can experience a wide sample of activities that they can take with them to their own teaching context.
With IH Newcastle, this course is eligible for Erasmus+ funding. ( IH Newcastle Participant Identification Code (PIC) 942566461)

Rachel Halsall, Head of Teacher Training
Teaching English can equip students with the skills and qualifications that they need to really make a difference to their own lives, and those of their families and communities. It’s a passport to a better life for many people. The more teachers – and the more good teachers we have – the more that can happen.
Adam Fallows
I really enjoy the camaraderie that can be fostered within a class. It sets EFL apart from many other careers and I believe it’s important for a trainer to be approachable, collaborative and understanding.
Sally Muse
I hope to equip trainees with the skills, techniques and ideas that will help them as they move into teaching English post-course. I hope to light a spark of passion for teaching and studying language and so trainees can approach their teaching with enthusiasm, excitement and inspiration.
