Teachers… you’ve got homework!
We know it, you know it — homework can be a drag. But what if it could actually feel alive?

Harnessing Learner Agency through Autonomy-Supportive Teaching with AI as Reflective Co-Pilot
Autonomy-supportive teaching, informed by technology, has been a complex and promising
pedagogical approach that enhances learner agency, motivation, and self-regulation by
addressing students’ cognitive, affective, and contextual needs (Reeve & Cheon, 2021;
Reinders & White,2016). Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) provide new opportunities
to extend this approach by serving as reflective companions that promote metacognition and
personalized support. Unlike static tools, generative AI and intelligent tutoring systems enable
dynamic dialogic interactions and tailored feedback, encouraging learners to set goals,
self-reflect, and critically evaluate their progress (Yuan & Liu, 2025). These interactions deepen
engagement, foster intrinsic motivation, and help students internalize learning goals for
autonomous self-regulation (García Botero et al., 2021). Importantly, AI complements rather
than replaces teachers, sustaining the human touch essential for social-emotional growth while
providing continuous, adaptable scaffolding aligned with autonomy-supportive principles.
Moreover, AI tools can flexibly adapt to diverse cultural and educational contexts, offering
pathways for inclusivity and differentiation (Li et al., 2025). This session provides actionable
frameworks like the Butterfly Model and the Wheel of Autonomy-Supportive Teaching, aiming to
equip educators to shift towards more autonomy-enhancing pedagogies that support student
growth holistically. By integrating AI as a reflective co-pilot, educators can create enriched
ecosystems that bridge intrapersonal reflection and external guidance, empowering learners to
take ownership of their educational journeys.

ESP Lessons that Work: Key Principles for Tailoring English to Specific Professions
In this session Kseniia takes a down-to-earth look at English for Specific Purposes - without fear and without unnecessary theory.
You will learn:
📍how ESP actually differs from General English (and why it’s not “rocket science”
📍why teaching ESP is often easier than it seems
📍how a well-structured course can increase student motivation
The session also highlights which skill is crucial for ESP teachers and what questions to ask students, yourself, and even ChatGPT to make courses truly effective.
Kseniia speaks from practice: right now she is preparing an ESP course for an architecture bureau founded by Ukrainians who relocated to Poland and deliver projects for the US.
You will leave not with “yet another theory,” but with practical tools ready to use in class the very next week.

Story Creatures
Whether we realise it or not, we are constantly immersed in stories. In fact, they say that stories are to humans as water is to fish. But what exactly is a story, and how do they work? In this talk, I will demonstrate some practical principles of storytelling that we can use to get students thinking creatively, collaborating, speaking and ultimately develop both their storytelling skills and a deeper understanding of how the world of stories works.

Developing Students’ Communicative Competence or Teaching Speaking Sub-skills Effectively

But do we actually teach them how to communicate and how to handle the conversation effectively? During the workshop we’ll discover the techniques that help students become better communicators.

An Exciting Redefinition of Teaching and Learning
Suggestopedic language classes can be thrilling experiences where learning becomes a compelling game of discovery. Dramatic presentations to music which wed emotions to content and modify brain activity! Lightening-fast changes in rhythm and intensity! Theatrical situations and fictitious new identities - all conspiring to show how suggestion, peripheral perception, and a specific form of invisible psychological management can make for peak experiences, where everything that happens becomes unforgettable. Created by Bulgarian doctor and psychiatrist, Dr. Georgi Lozanov, from the 1970’s on, UNESCO and various private corporations have assessed that this method speeds learning up threefold. AND it’s great fun.

Dinternal Education Presentation
Rob Howard
13:00 - 14:30 Kyiv time
Staying the Course(book): Fighting the Tide of AI
This talk highlights the enduring value of the teacher’s guide—an anchor shaped by decades of classroom practice, pedagogical research, and refined wisdom. Rather than leaning on rapidly evolving AI tools, this talk celebrates the thoughtfully curated resources within the guide: lesson plans, scaffolding strategies, formative assessments, and enrichment activities. While technology and AI promise shortcuts, the guide reminds us of the depth and richness of human-centered teaching. Attendees will explore how these tried-and-true materials provide consistency, adaptability, and depth, supporting educators in fostering authentic learning experiences. By revisiting the guide’s richness, we reaffirm the human expertise that ensures your teaching remains on course.

Chunking Unplugged: How to Combine the Lexical Approach and Dogme ELT
In the session we are going to see how combining elements of the lexical approach and Dogme ELT together provides an opportunity to create flexibility in the classroom where students acquire language with the focus on learning chunks while having meaningful conversations and working with their emergent language needs.
We are going to discuss how exactly the principles of the LA and Dogme work together and analyze examples of activities from my own lessons. Then attendees would work in breakout rooms on either making lexical suggestions for Dogme lessons, or adding elements of Dogme to lexical coursebook materials.
