What happens when English learning is driven by curiosity, creativity, and real-world purpose? Magic! Project-Based Learning (PBL) is more than just a teaching method — it’s a dynamic, student-centered approach that turns classrooms into creative labs where language comes alive through exploration, collaboration, and meaningful tasks.

In this high-energy session, we’ll unlock the power of *Project-Based Learning in English Language Teaching (ELT) and show how it can spark motivation, deepen understanding, and build essential 21st-century skills — from communication and creativity to critical thinking and global awareness. Through hands-on ideas, inspiring examples, and practical tools, you’ll discover how to design projects that matter, connect language learning with the real world, and help students take ownership of their voice and learning. Come ready to rethink what’s possible in your ELT classroom — and leave empowered to turn projects into powerful learning journeys!
