I was really interested in this article by Geoff Petty in the most recent addition of InTuition, IfL‘s journal for teachers in the FE and Skills Sector.
‘Differentiation’ as a concept is so important but often so difficult to achieve in any meaningful way. Geoff’s article not only provides an interesting practical solution, but also signposts the possible pitfalls of using differentiating strategies.
Maxam Training is excited to announce that all our courses, whether face to face or distance learning, will now utilise our e-portfolio system to easily record and store your evidence for all programme assessment criteria. Yet another reason to choose our North West, Lancashire and Manchester based PTLLS, CTLLS and DTLLS courses no matter where you are in the UK.
Back in Yorkshire for another series of PTLLS micro-teach observations. I can’t help but be impressed with the quality of these mini-training sessions, how do you all managed to compress an effective introduction, some learner engagement methodology and finish off with an assessment of learning…most impressive.
Well done everyone, a very enjoyable day.

Well done to all the new trainee teachers from the Yorkshire PTLLS course, I haven’t laughed so much in ages!
Here are a few of the kind evaluation comments-
‘The enthusiasm and committment of the trainer was beyond fault’
‘An excellent week’
‘A well structured and informative course, thank you’
‘Excellent course, well prepared and structured’
‘Very good course, very intensive, very enjoyable’
Just finished delivering the first part of a PTLLS programme to a small group of experienced trainers. The group was even smaller than expected due to some last minute cancellations through sporting injuries. The knock on effect was that we had to postpone the micro-teaching sessions until the missing learners were able to catch up. The sessions were still fruitful and enjoyable and highlighted how flexible you need to be as a teacher. Also, your teaching methodology for small groups will inevitably be different to that of a larger cohort, but don’t think that means your session will take less time. I found that we were discussing relevant issues just as much as I would expect with a larger group, maybe even more!
Looking forward to our next Lancashire and Manchester PTLLS courses.
