How can I help my students move beyond memorising facts to deeper understanding?

Teaching Using Concepts – Free Interactive Masterclass with Ali Ezzeddine Have you ever noticed that your students can remember facts, repeat definitions and answer questions correctly, but struggle to explain the bigger ideas or apply what they've learned in a new situation? We want our students to think deeply, make connections and develop understanding that lasts beyond the next assessment. But with so much curriculum to cover, how can we make this happen without adding more to our workload? WHAT IF THE ANSWER ISN'T TEACHING MORE CONTENT, BUT APPROACHING WHAT WE ALREADY TEACH DIFFERENTLY? Join Ali Ezzeddine for a free, interactive masterclass exploring how concept-based teaching helps students move beyond memorisation towards meaningful, transferable understanding. Through practical activities, reflection and collaborative discussions, you'll explore: ◾How concepts help students connect facts, skills and bigger ideas. ◾The difference between knowing information and developing conceptual understanding. ◾How to use questions that encourage curiosity, inquiry and deeper thinking. ◾Ways to bring concepts into your existing lessons and units without starting from scratch. This isn't another session where you simply listen to theory. You'll experience concept-based learning yourself, reflect on your practice and discover how to begin applying these ideas in your classroom. 📅 Date: Thursday, November 26, 2026 🕕 English session: 4:00 PM CET or 7:00 PM UAE time 💻 Format: Live via Zoom 🎟️ Price: FREE Ready to help your students think beyond the facts?
