May 4th - Nagoya "How to make Elementary School English Genki"
In this presentation, in Japanese, I'll be going through some of the principles

lessons and giving techniques and motivation to the teachers. Afterwards,
along with Yoko Matsuka of Matsuka Phonics fame, we'll be holding a question
and answer session.

May 18th - Kids Show in Hiroshima and Teaching Seminar for Hiroshima JALT
This time we'll not only be doing a fantastic teaching seminar, but we'll
also be doing a Genki English kids show!! If you have any elementary school
aged students then be sure to bring them along, it's only 1,500 yen per
kid and it'll probably be the best hour's English they'll ever have!!
May 19th - Nakayama Elementary School - Okayama City
In the morning we'll have a Genki English show for all the kids in the school, then in the afternoon the teachers will gather together for a teacher training seminar, showing them how to teach English and International Understanding in their classrooms and answering any problems or worries they may have. If you live nearby, get in touch with the school and they may let you attend! Tel 086 - 284- 6083
May 26th - 28th JET Recontracting Conference Kobe
June 2-4 JET Recontracting Conference Tokyo
We really want to do the Key Note Speech!! Similar to the "Getting
the most out of JET" speech we did last year in Tokyo (about which
one JET wrote "I went in there hung over and feeling terrible, I came
out feeling I could wrestle a grizzly bear with one hand tied behind my
back!"), instead of teaching techniques, we'd like to go through the
stuff you really should know to make the most of JET!! I can assure you
that this could be one of the best JET speeches you will attend!! But it's
still not confirmed yet, so please write and tell CLAIR you recommend us!!!!
June 1st Kids Show in Odawara, Kanagawa Prefecture
We were here in February for a kids show and they loved it so much they've
invited us back!! So if you live anywhere nearby, get all your elementary
school students to come along, at only 1,500 yen it'll be one of the best
English experiences they could have!!
August 26th - Huge Kids Show in Nagoya!!
We've been to Nagoya quite a few times this year to get the teachers Genki,
this time it's for the kids!! Hundreds of them all singing, dancing, learning
Genki English and above all getting motivated that English is cool and
mega fun to learn!! Bring along your students, at only 1,500 yen each it's
a bargain!!!
