Applications for The Japan Foundation’s January 2019 intensive seminar, to be held in Sydney, have been extended to Monday 22 October 2018.
This intensive seminar delivers 19 hours of NESA-registered professional development.
The seminar enables teachers to develop their language skills, gain confidence using Japanese, and to develop language teaching strategies and skills which they can apply in the language classroom.
Specific focuses include the Australian Curriculum, and ICT-based learning. Participants will be immersed in a Japanese language environment suited to their level and will have ample opportunity for networking.
