Proposed Organization Model for our ELT Leadership and Management Course

For the submission of the Final Paper in the ELT Leadership and Management course, we were asked to create an imaginary organization mentioning the goals and objectives. So this is what I came up with in my writing:

To provide English Language Teaching Services to students from different backgrounds and also training the teachers in profession who wants to improve their teaching skills, I am going to establish a new organization by the name One Stop English Language Center. The reason behind the choosing this name for the organization is to reflect the objectives of the organization as it focuses both on English language teaching and learning services. The name ‘One Stop’ emphasizes how this can be the one destination for the students to learn English Language and also for the teachers to develop their teaching skills through training. The main belief of my organization is – “Education is not received, it is achieved.”

The specific goals of my organization would be:

1. To provide English language education to the learners from different backgrounds in Dhaka area and also establish a strong linkage with other education centers or schools.
2. To provide training and guidance to teachers to make them familiar with the traditional and contemporary second language teaching methods and resources.
3. To create opportunities and trust for the learners and the teachers and develop long – term relationship with other education centers.

There are several objectives of my organization that are mainly focused on the welfare of language learning and teaching for the learners and teachers:

1. Teach English Language skills to learners from different backgrounds in order to develop their principles of language learning that will result in personal and professional achievement.
2. The English Language learning program will not be limited to classroom experience, but will also involve group discussions, lectures, problem-solving activities and games etc.
3. In addition to learning and preparation of resources, my organization will provide tools that will help evaluate and build the English-language skills of learners, employees or individuals.
4. Training teachers to plan objectives-based, communicative and student-centered lessons, syllabus and class activities, strengthen their teaching and leadership skills and enriching their personal development.
5. Instructing teachers about the effective use of the technology, media, audio and video tools and materials to be used in the classroom for English Language teaching and assisting them to learn evaluate their learners’ achievements.

I think my proposed organization could be a model for the English language teaching and learning in Bangladesh. We could easily move from the traditional to contemporary teaching techniques and incorporate ICT in language learning in institutions. What do you think?
