ELTAF CONFERENCE 2010
We cordially invite you to attend the ELTAF English teachers' conference on Saturday, September 11, from 09:30 - 18:15. The conference will be held at the Hochschule Fresenius, Richard-Klinger-Str. 5, 65510 Idstein (northwest of Frankfurt/Main), our NEW attractive location. Due to the times of the trains to Idstein, we have decided to start the conference at 09:30 and for those who prefer to come by car, we would like to encourage you to car share or use www.mitfahrzentrale.de which gives you the opportunity to arrange lifts online (also in English) free of charge.
Our conference will offer approximately 40 workshops (workshop description here, workshop schedule here, register online here), featuring topics such as practical classroom techniques, new media applications, Business English topics, language acquisition theory, materials and methodology for young learners, as well as information and advice for freelance English teachers in Germany. All of the major ELT publishers as well as many other ELT-relevant companies will present their materials at stands in the exhibition area. We are also pleased to announce Mark Powell as our keynote speaker.
REGISTRATION FEE:
BEFORE July 15th / ELTAF members €55 / non-members €70
AFTER July 15th / ELTAF members €65 / non-members €80
Conference speakers pay €55
The fee includes buffet lunch, coffee breaks and a raffle of books and ELT materials which will take place at the close of the conference day. Fees can be refunded if cancellation is made before August 15, minus a cancellation charge of € 10. Due to the expenses incurred by running such a conference, we regret that fees cannot be refunded after August 15.
The ELTAF conference is designed to offer something for everyone, regardless of whether you are: new to the field or have decades of experience, a native speaker or non-native teacher of English, a freelancer or an employee of a private company or institution, teaching young learners or retired people, trainees or executives, an ELTAF member or non-member. We look forward to spending an interesting, thought-provoking and above all enjoyable day together.
You can now register ONLINE for the conference and the workshops you wish to attend As you will not be able to register for workshops when they are full, you are advised to complete the following registration forms as early as possible. After registration, you will receive a confirmation of your workshops and travel details will be available on the website. Due to last minute cancellations of speakers, there may be minor changes on the actual day of the conference. We are sure you understand that this is unavoidable. You can check the ELTAF website for updates.
Warm regards on behalf of the hard-working Conference Crew
