Johnny and Joshua: Gwangju TESOL regional conference

I will attend the TESOL regional conference below this Saturday to promote my book.

Not sure how it will work out but glad for the opportunity to market my product.

Hopefully there will be many people there and they will be interested in educating their children with this book. This will be less expensive than Itaewon since Gwangju is only ninety minutes away from my town.

Wish me luck!

This is a one day conference at Gwangju National University of Education. It's on Saturday, March 9 . This conference normally attracts a wide range of attendees including public school teachers from Gwangju EPIK as well as JLP, and also private/international school teachers, hagwon teachers, and university teachers.

There will be a bunch of workshops and discussions, and also interactive displays. EJ Sankofa will be there, and you'll be able to check out her book Johnny and Joshua Coming to Korea!

Including workshops on: using QR codes and other barcodes in class, doing lessons about refugees, English language arts and crafts, error correction strategies, critical pedagogy, and more.

Discussion topics include: 'What are we teaching for?!', classroom management, the challenges faced by NETs, native-speakerism, and teaching English through content.

After the conference there will be a dinner at a nearby pasta restaurant and all are welcome.
