The DLL Format

Each course will be completely online and last 10 weeks with around 8-10 hours per week. With access to our e-learning platform, you'll be able to work on your own as well as receive one-on-one tutoring. You'll receive training for approximately 90 hours in total.

Sessions made to fit your schedule

  • 100% Online format with 3 live sessions of 60 minutes each, in which cooperative projects are worked on and presented, and the subject matter is discussed.
  • Participation in 2 out of 3 live sessions is mandatory. If you are unable to attend one of the 3 sessions, you can instead watch the recording and submit a summary. The dates for these live sessions will be set together during the first week.
  • Depending on the group size, participants will be supported by 1 or 2 DLL tutors.
  • A theory and exercise book will be made available online for free, or can be ordered in print for a small shipping fee.

What you'll get out of a course

DLL promotes the expansion of methodological and didactic skills, as well as intercultural exchange. Participants in our courses work on joint practical exploration projects (PEPs) in multicultural and multinational groups. You will be meeting colleagues from all over North-Western Europe. The programme is structured to fit into the busy schedule of teachers.
