Abstract

Professional development helps teachers stay updated, build new skills, and become more effective in the classroom. It is not a single event but an ongoing process throughout a teacher’s career. Continuous learning allows teachers to adopt best practices and respond confidently to diverse student needs. Research also shows that well-designed professional development can lead to better student outcomes. Drawing on evidences, this paper explores the limitation of the current professional development models, personalization of professional development through modular learning, its relevance on professional development of English language teachers, and strategies for its effective implementation.
