STORYTELLING IN LANGUAGE TEACHING

Our April meeting: Sunday, April 16th from 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm in room 453 in Building 5 of Aichi University with Charles Kowalski.

Everyone loves a good story! This workshop is for teachers interested in bringing the power of oral storytelling (personal anecdotes, folktales, jokes, or any other kind of narrative) into their classrooms. The first part examines the linguistic, cultural, and personal benefits that storytelling can bring to a language class, and help participants develop their own natural storytelling talent through voice, gesture, memory, and other tools of the storyteller. The second part presents classroom activities to make stories easily understandable by learners of all ages and all levels from beginning to advanced.

Members free; "One-day members" 1000 yen
