Fukuoka JALT:

Motivating Learners to Speak; followed by Bonenkai (end-of-year party)

Date: Saturday, December 2nd, 2017 Time: 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Speaker: Rob Peacock (sponsored by Oxford University Press)

Description:
In this session we will take some time to discuss the difficulties which learners face when developing their productive skills, and then look at some effective methods to motivate students to speak out. I will illustrate those methods by running through some practical classroom activities using the third edition of Smart Choice. Finally, I will introduce some online material which can be used on both PCs and mobile devices to increase exposure to English outside of the classroom.

Bio: Rob Peacock currently works at Oxford University Press as an Educational Services Consultant and course coordinator of the Oxford Teachers' Academy. He has spent over sixteen years in Japan teaching students of all ages as well as providing teacher support and workshops.
