Shaping the Way We Teach English Webinar Series 2015!

The very popular "Shaping the Way We Teach English" webinar series starts again this January. This is a professional development created for teachers by teachers. Past versions have been quite warmly received by English language educators throughout the world and this session promises to be more of the same. It's my hope to be able to host viewing sessions at the American Center. To build interest, I've included a list that outlines topics and dates for the six webinars.

Also, if you attend at least four of the six sessions, you will receive a certificate from the English Language Office (which is a great addition to any C.V. and a way to demonstrate your dedication to professional development to potential employers!).
