TKT Module 2 study guide

TKT Module 2 · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.

TKT (Teaching Knowledge Test) is a series of modular qualifications from Cambridge English that test knowledge in specific areas of English language teaching. It is designed for both new and experienced teachers, including teachers of primary, secondary and adult learners, and is aimed at teachers with an English level of B1 or above. Candidates take the tests at authorised TKT centres around the world and receive a separate certificate for each module they complete, with no requirement to take modules in a set order or within a set time period. TKT consists of three core modules - Module 1: Background to language learning and teaching; Module 2: Lesson planning and use of resources for language teaching; and Module 3: Managing the teaching and learning process - plus two specialist modules, TKT CLIL and TKT YL. Topics on this exam: Identifying the different components of a lesson plan, Planning an individual lesson or a sequence of lessons, Choosing assessment activities, and Selection and use of resources and materials (reference resources, coursebook, supplementary materials and activities, teaching aids). The TKT Module 2 study guide has 4 sections and about 1,261 words.
