Alan Maley visits Shizuoka Chapter!
Wed, 12/01/2010 - 20:10 — adminOn November 26th, 2010, Shizuoka JALT was honoured to have Professor Alan Maley visit our chapter as part of the Four Corners Tour. Professor Alan Maley's talk "Where do Ideas Come From?" was informative and entertaining. I'm sure that each of the 24 attendees left with some new ideas.
At the end of the evening, one lucky attendee won an autographed copy of Alan Maley's book, "Advanced Learners". The book was graciously donated by Robert Peacock and Oxford University Press. Thank you!
President's Welcome
Mon, 01/25/2010 - 20:30 — adminWelcome to Shizuoka JALT!
We are a friendly, medium-sized chapter that holds meetings every second month in Shizuoka city. Our members teach in a variety of settings - elementary schools, junior / senior high schools, universities and conversational schools. At each meeting, we try to invite dynamic presenters who will not just lecture but will also engage the audience by giving practical, interactive presentations and workshops. It is our hope that each meeting attendee will not only learn something but also leave with at least one specific activity or technique that can be used with their classes tomorrow.
Although we are a professional association, it doesn't mean that we don't enjoy ourselves. After our meetings, we usually go out for coffee and a bite to eat after our meetings and enjoy lively conversations in a casual setting. In addition to our meetings, we also have our annual end-of-year party after our December meeting.
Whether you are a new or experienced teacher, there is something for you at Shizuoka JALT!
Adam Murray
President, Shizuoka Chapter
