Lesson Planning for Teachers Certificate

Lesson Planning for Teachers Course

Lesson planning is a difficult but important part of any teacher’s job. Without a solid plan in place, it can be hard to capture and maintain the focus of your class. It is also harder to ensure that you have allocated enough time to the material that you want to deliver. While lesson planning is complex, it is a skill that can be learned just like any other.

This course gives you an overview of lesson planning, letting you know how to properly arrange the material that you want to deliver in a way that appeals to as many students as possible. We divide this information across two modules.

The first module focuses on what you need to know before you sit down to draft your lesson plan, including a discussion of different learning styles.

The second module talks about how to execute your lesson plan and includes a discussion on classroom technology.

By the end of the course, you should be able to craft and deliver a lesson plan that successfully appeals to your whole class.

You Will Learn:

  • Why lesson planning is an important skill that you should develop
  • The four main learning methods and how to appeal to each learner
  • How you can incorporate technology into the classroom
  • The specific reasons why children misbehave in classroom settings
  • How to keep students engaged in the material

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • Learn about the key factors that you need to consider before drafting your lesson plan
  • Understand how to manage classroom behaviour
  • If you are currently studying to become a teacher, learn more about preparing great lessons now to impress your supervisors
  • If you are a teacher, learn more about how to better prepare your lessons, so that you can appeal to as many students as possible
  • If you are a parent, learn more about how your child’s teachers plan their lessons

This course was very informative and i loved that it could be done at my own pace and not have deadlines to reach.

Even my dog loved the benefits and being my practice dummy!

New Skills Academy is a lovely system to work with. Easy to sign up and make an account. Modules are clearly defined and are packed of information. Really great, has lots of information on lots of topics.

Great foundation for anyone looking into this area of employment or self employed as has great ideas and advice to build on. Have attended face to face courses which have much less information than this.

Lovely bite size quizzes on some modules which help to understand and enforce the contact of the bigger modules. End exam has a nice mixture of topics covered in the course. And has an option to re-sit if needed.

I honestly cannot recommend this course highly enough for anyone thinking of pursuing a career in Wedding Planning. The course was very obviously written by industry professionals. Course content was easy to understand, yet thorough and in depth. I also love that this course covered such a diverse range of topics including weddings from different cultures and religions, not just the standard white-dress chapel wedding. I really feel as though this course has given me a bounding head start in the wedding planning industry and I can't wait to get in there and start my own business. Highly recommend - worth every penny :)

Having just completed the Dyslexia Diploma in a few days I can honestly say I now have a much better knowledge of the condition and it gave me so much detail and information to learn in order to use in my teaching job. Very clear and easy to follow with great assessments at the end of each module. Also the multiple choice exam covered all of the important points I had learnt. Highly recommend this diploma. The fact I could study this online in my own time was a huge positive. I look forward to further study more diplomas related.

Whilst on maternity leave I started thinking about in what capacity I'd go back to work, and if there was something different I could do. I came across reed courses and chose this course in PA and Admin and another in HR.

I was so happy they were on offer! I chose them because the course modules were comprehensive.

I can sit and do modules with my newborn son on my lap via my iPhone. It's so handy, the modules are clear and concise.

I'm so happy I chose this course. I can't wait to add it to my CV and see what jobs I can get.

My dream has come true. Eventually I found this online course after searching for years in my area where none of the colleges provided it and it is necessary to get my dream job.

I got an incredible discount and what I like the best I got a lifetime access to the course, so there is no rush and I can revisit any time to revise as well.

Excellent support and immediate response to emails, I am very pleased. The course material is written in an easily understandable way, no hidden fees and mobile friendly so I can learn anywhere.
