By the end of the practice periods, students will have demonstrated their ability to analyze their own teaching methods and adjust them.

Main themes

To adopt a critical stance towards the quality, organization and the connection with the preparation made during the active practice sessions (40 hours) with a view to improving them.

Content and teaching methods

Having made contact with their supervisors, students must draw up the time scale in which they will submit their preparation work and discuss any necessary amendments. Supervisors retain the right to teach the lesson themselves should they judge the preparation to be insufficient.
