TPR-S Storybook Fun

Saturday, October 20th, 2007, 7:00 PM - 8:45 PM

Speaker: Melinda Kawahara

Even the best teachers sometimes run out of ideas for their next class. Especially when teaching young learners, lessons must be well prepared and full of fun. In this workshop the presenter will demonstrate how to use TPR-S storybooks for children through games and activities. In this hands-on session a detailed lesson plan will be outlined and everyone will be given the opportunity to write their own personalized story.

Melinda Kawahara has been teaching English as a foreign language for the last 19 years to students of all ages. For the past five years she has been promoting using storybooks in the EFL/ESL classroom using the TPR-S method. She has successfully passed two extensive TPR-S training courses in the United States and is currently the director of Lindy Lizard”Ēs English House where all classes are based on this method.
