I usually do the launch of a new CD at the Maruzen book store in Fukuoka, but this year decided to do it as part of the ACET teachers group as they have always been so good to me.

Usually it’s a very relaxed vibe, but today we had lots of new teachers who were very much in the “caught in the headlights” mode when I went straight into the activities without any introduction or warming up! Luckily a few jokes in Japanese got them relaxed and although we ran over on time ( sorry about that!) I think it went pretty well.

The lesson plans you can find online on the CD7 page ( click the song titles) or in the new printed lesson plans book.

I also took some video, once I’ve had chance to look it over I’ll see if any of it is worthwhile putting on the site.
