Partnered Remote Language Improvement (PRELIM) 3 project report

The Partnered Remote Language Improvement project (PRELIM 3) was an initiative involving 25 partnerships between accredited UK English language teaching institutions and English language teacher associations outside the UK. The 25 partnerships developed and disseminated packages of supplementary resources for teachers of English in each teacher association’s context.

PRELIM is a partnership between the British Council, English UK and the International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language (IATEFL), project managed by the Norwich Institute for Language Education (NILE). PRELIM 1 (2020/21) and PRELIM 2 (2021/22) aimed to improve the English language competence of participating English teachers and increase their confidence in the classroom.
