Hey, teachers! 

Thank you for attending our master class. Hope you've learnt a lot about phonics as well as specific techniques, activities, resources used to introduce sounds and tricky words. We’d like to give you a few professional development tips more.

Comprehensive assessment is as important as well-organised and engaging learning process. Together with international organizations such as Cambridge University Press, Cambridge Assessment English, British Council Ukraine, we at Grade Education Centre  are working hard to help teachers meet international teaching standards and provide students and parents with quality materials from world-class English language practitioners. 

This year, all 4th grade students of the New Ukrainian School have an opportunity to take the Cambridge A1 Movers exam and receive reliable confirmation, as well as an independent assessment of their success in learning English.

We support the New Ukrainian School and in partnership with Cambridge conduct the A1 Movers exam with a 10% discount. Find out more here.

When it comes to obtaining international teaching qualifications, for teachers working with kids, there is no better way to start than taking Cambridge Teaching Knowledge Test (TKT) – Young Learners Module. At our centre, you can not only take the test itself, but join our Online TKT Preparation Course to have a clear understanding of the format, revise all topic areas from the syllabus, and do some sample tasks for practice.
