March 14: The Sokcho chapter of the Korea Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages in Gangwon Province is holding a meeting with a lecture by Kotesol national president Tory S. Thorkelson on “Speaking of Speech: A Conversation Teacher’s Toolbox.”

Many native English speakers still lack a real understanding of how to implement, assess and help students feel they have input into what and how they learn to speak English.

This presentation will highlight tips that have helped the presenter succeed as a conversation teacher.

The meeting will be held at the Sokcho-Yang Yang Office of Education from 3 to 5 p.m.

All are welcome to attend the presentation and join Kotesol members for dinner and drinks afterwards.
