Workshop

Fun Activities with Infinitives & Gerunds

The process of teaching infinitives and gerunds can sometimes appear to be confusing and even elusive given the kinds of collocations they tend to be found in. However, helping learners see how infinitives and gerunds work in ‘real life’ can actually be a lot of fun and can be incorporated within a wide array of engaging and practical activities, making this a so-called ‘inductive learning’ student-centered workshop.
