An online competition for teachers titled "Best English Video Lesson" aims to create the best English video lessons linked to various British Council online resources and mapped to the school curriculum for all grades and thus, to support teachers in their remote teaching. It is held for English teachers of primary and secondary schools of Kazakhstan with specific focus on Mangystau and Atyrau regions.
Applied teachers will participate in a webinar conducted by the UK consultant. They will learn how to create a high-quality English video lesson and have a chance to apply the knowledge and skills they gained from the training to the creation of their own video lessons. They will choose a vocabulary or grammar topic from the school curriculum and find the relevant activity from one of the British Council’s websites:
The panel of judges will identify ten finalists with best video entries in each of the three geographic categories:
- Category 1: Atyrau region
- Category 2: Mangystau region
