The LEARNING WORLD Workshop is a great opportunity to increase your understanding and application of the LEARNING WORLD textbooks. But it’s also much more. It’s an opportunity for us all to increase our understanding of our own teaching. Because we are so busy throughout the year, we rarely get the chance to analyse our teaching approach and our actions in the classroom.

If you enjoy teaching, you should really attend the LEARNING WORLD Workshop.
If you DON’T enjoy teaching, you should really attend the LEARNING WORLD Workshop!

Incidentally, on the Workshop application form, APRICOT asks “Why have you applied for this year’s Workshop?” Most of the answers on applications received so far are summarized here:

〇これから英語教室をスタートしたいので、教材を知りたい！
I want to start an English classroom so I want to know about materials.

There are several things to consider when selecting materials for a new school. Perhaps the most important one is “What kind of result do I want my students at my new school to achieve, and what do I want them to become?” Definitely expect this to be addressed at the Workshop!

〇高学年のレッスンの進め方、どのレベルまでもっていけばいいか、知りたい！
Because I want to know the flow of upper-elementary students’ lessons. To what level can I bring them?

Upper-elementary school students make for very interesting students. Their changing attitudes to study (of not just English) marks a need for adjustment in our attitudes to them. The learning experiences we can bring them can be very rewarding!

〇Book４，Book５の指導方法とアイディアを教えてほしい
Because I want ideas on how to teach Book 4 and Book 5.

〇中学生にBook４，Book ５を使う予定があるので!
Because I plan to have my JH students use Book 4 & Book 5.

LEARNING WORLD Books 4 & 5 are new (or revised) additions to the APRICOT catalogue. They will definitely be given attention at the Workshop.

〇毎回参加してる★
Because I attend every year.

〇前回、前々回、参加してみて、よかったので・・・！
Because the last Workshop and the one previous to that was good.

Those teachers who answered this way didn’t have any specific requests. They indicated that their attendance at previous LEARNING WORLD Workshops was beneficial.
I agree!

The Workshop brings many issues of the English classroom to the fore. It allows us to reflect on most aspects of our teaching, and can be very eye-opening!

So if this is your first attendance at a LEARNING WORLD Workshop, please look forward to it! I’m confident you will enjoy it.
If this is not your first LEARNING WORLD Workshop, it’s going to be great to see you again! Please look forward to it! I’m confident you will enjoy it again.

If you haven’t yet applied, come on! Do it now!!
