EMI training can also give you a broader perspective of your own subject, not only by letting you understand it's content in English but by making it possible to teach it in more than one language.

EMI is very important because most academic research is published in English. Most schools in South Africa have English as a medium of instruction so employment opportunities will be higher for a teacher that speaks fluent English.

If a teacher can speak English fluently there will be more job opportunities and salary wise may be higher than a teacher who cannot speak English fluently. It also gives you the opportunity to travel the word as well as teach overseas. moniqueotto8 https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/234765797 Monique Otto

It will help you to get opportunities to teach English abroad I.e in China and other countries.

On the other hand, developing 11 official languages to a point where they are able to function as Languages of Instruction presents a bit of a challenge, regarding time, money and expertise etc. A wise man once spoke with great wisdom when he said "A societies well-being depends on its education". Given the above it is of utmost importance that we in S-A have a generally accepted Medium of Instruction in our schools while looking at the possibility of mother tongue education. More and more schools are Anglicising not only because more and more parents prefer it this way - mostly because of the obvious and sometimes stereotypical generalisations about English -  but also because it is the most neutral option at this stage, given our countries political state and that of our education system. Proper EMI training for our teachers  ensures the growth and development our young ones need and deserve. In conclusion good EMI training is a mayor contributing factor to training competent teachers. Competent teachers leads to competent learners in whom's hands the future of S-A lies.   ]]> 2018-02-24 19:22:06 UTC https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235016783 phenyositase https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235052331 2018-02-25 05:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235052331 THE IMPORTANCE OF EMI TRAINING FOR SOUTH AFRICAN TEACHERS. dineozanelethaane https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235145172 EMI training is very important and vital for South African teachers, as English is the language connector of all languages in South Africa and across the world. EMI training gives the teacher a proper training  in semantics, syntax and phology that helps learners to know and understand English quickly and easily. This training also allows teachers to acquire Second Language Acquisition coming with theory and methodology. And gives learners examples of completed tasks and pays formal teaching of academic discourse.  And a teacher who undergoes this training gets to be fluent in English making it easier for the learners to hear everything that is being said by the teacher properly, And the teacher also knows how to divide his work into small and summarized pieces that are very easy to read and understand for the learners and also knows how to explain terms,concepts, definitions, and other things in a simple and understable manner. So I would say that teaching English as a Medium of Instruction helps a lot in making teaching easy and fun,as there will be mutual understanding and learning and teaching made easy.]]> 2018-02-25 20:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235145172 dineozanelethaane https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235218009 Dineo Agnes Thaane - 27225363]]> 2018-02-26 05:23:42 UTC https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235218009 Gerrie Vorster 28613767 gerrievorster1 https://padlet.com/weissestene/jx48dl7y0uhl/wish/235289715 In today’s global world, the importance of English can not be denied and ignored since English is the most common language spoken everywhere. With the help of developing technology, English has been playing a major role in many sectors including medicine, engineering, and education, which, in my opinion, is the most important arena where English is needed. You will find work faster if you can communicate in English. EMI will full the gap between learners and teacher's,it will make content easier to understand.
