Speaker
Description
This presentation will be conducted in a workshop format in both Japanese and English.
The presenter has been actively involved in JALT as a Nagoya Chapter officer, organizing monthly meetings and managing venue reservations. In addition, this year they are serving as the Chair of UALS, engaging in discussions with colleagues from academic associations outside of JALT in Japan to establish common rules and practices for the broader field of humanities-related academic societies.
Although these responsibilities require a significant time commitment, they have provided valuable learning opportunities and fostered leadership development through information sharing among officers and active exchanges with officers from other chapters. One of the benefits has been immediate access to useful information related to professional opportunities and language teaching.
This workshop is particularly recommended for those who want to learn more about JALT, first-time conference participants, and those interested in becoming involved as officers. The presenter will also share experiences from international contexts, including volunteer work as both a presenter and organizer at TESOL.
Summary
This workshop informs attendees about leadership and skills development as conference organizers. Feel free to ask questions and share your stories about teaching in this workshop.
