The document outlines an agenda for a workshop on teaching advanced English learners. It discusses defining advanced learners and their needs, using authentic materials like blogs and videos rather than textbooks, and interactive techniques like role plays and case studies to practice skills like listening, speaking, reading and writing. The goal is to move beyond textbooks and engage learners through drama, improvisation and addressing real-world business situations.
