(1) Why Teaching Listening is Vital (2) Flipping the Class Through Literature Circles

Event Speaker(s): 
Alastair Graham-Marr (ABAX ELT Publishing)
Sunday, July 31, 2016 - 2:00pm to 5:00pm

Mr. Graham-Marr will be speaking on two topics at this event, which is being co-produced with ABAX ELT Publishing.
1. Why Teaching Listening is Vital
Learners often lack an understanding of how English is actually spoken, impeding comprehension. Japanese learners are often unable to hear words that they know! Presented is a look at how listening should be taught.
2. Flipping the Class Through Literature Circles
Flipping the classroom through literature circles is an effective mechanism for maximizing student talking time and giving your students effective study time at home. This presentation reviews the procedures and shows how flipping the class might optimize learning.
