When I started teaching 20 years ago, I sucked as a teacher. Now I'm not saying that you suck, but I definitely sucked.
My students were bored, I was bored and I didn't know what was wrong. I was teaching the same way I was taught in high school. What was I doing wrong?
I was frustrated that my students couldn't actually use the language.
I was frustrated that my students weren't as excited about grammar as I was.
I was frustrated that I was looking at the clock more than my students.
Does any of this sound familiar?
I knew I needed to make a change if I was going to stay in this career for any length of time. I scoured the internet for help and came across teaching with Comprehensible Input. I didn't know what that was and there weren't any trainings near me when I needed them. I bought all the books I could and tried to wing it on my own until I could get training that summer. But it was hard.
I needed training and I needed it right away.
I muddled through the rest of the year with great success, but it wasn't easy. My students were actually learning the language. My students were actually using the language. My students were actually having fun
while
learning the language. It was awesome!
But I had to make all of my own lessons. I had to scour through many different CI textbooks to match stories with my current textbook. I had to script my stories and script all of my questions. I had to write all of my own exams. It was a lot. I was spending hours and hours after school working on my lessons and assessments.
But you don't have to!
I've put together absolutely the best, most comprehensive online CI training available so you can save time, and save money by training from the comfort of your own home.
I've consolidated our flagship Webversity Pro course into just 8 essential lessons to get you started teaching with comprehension-based methods in just 8 weeks.
Learn how to layout and decorate your classroom, as well as set up your grade book for maximum success.
If you don't start the year on the right foot, you'll be playing catchup the rest of the year. Learn how to set expectations, create effective procedures, manage your class, and get kids to actively participate.
This lesson focuses on getting to know the students through language on the first day of school even in level 1.
Learn from the experts Stephen Krashen and Bill VanPatten about how language is actually acquired so you can stop spinning your wheels and improve your instruction.
Learn how to take what you need to teach and effectively plan it out over the course of your program.
Building effective relationships with students is at the heart of comprehension-based instruction. Learn how to create and build these relationships all in the target language.
Learn the essentials of asking repetitive, scaffolded, differentiated questions to maximize retention of language patterns.
Use everyday conversations to engage students at their level using their interests to increase student buy-in.
Learn the essentials of proficiency-based grading and why it's more effective than traditional grading.
We continue our discussion on proficiency-based grading.

Teach more than just food and holidays using the target language to immerse your students in the culture.
We've already discussed all of the core comprehension-based activities. These are the activities that add a little variety to your lessons.
We continue our discussion on classroom activities.
We all need breaks and students are no different. Listening to another language for 30 or more minutes is brain-exhausting. Learn effective brain breaks that energize and envigorate students.
Homework cannot be just busy work or assigned to check a box. Learn effective homework activities that will make the task much more meaningful for you and your students.

"Excellent for novice TPRS teachers too! All that I needed to know how to implement the TPRS theory in the real class was covered by the II Webversity. Very precise and detailed instruction on TPRS from A to Z, tons of live illustrations, VERY SUPPORTIVE follow-up make this course indispensible for those wishing to switch over from a boring fossilized textbook to a vibrant TPRS class. Having tried some specific TPRS techniques throughout the previous school year, now I can get started with 100% TPRS class without any fear. Thank you so much from Russia."
"This was the single most-important investment of both my time and money this school year. I learned so much from Scott, gained new tools to use in the classroom, and received feedback on what I am doing in the classroom. I will definitely be back next year!"
"I highly recommend both Scott’s Immediate Immersion and Webversity class. I was the only one in my district doing CI and I was much more successful following his plans since they have been tested and used in classrooms for 10+ years. The webversity also gave me a way to troubleshoot and get ideas from Scott and other teachers all over the world. The teachers manual that comes with the curriculum has a TON of helpful strategies and suggestions to help make CI work for the classroom that would be very helpful for a new teacher."
I'm going to help you become an AWESOME
