The Gyeonggi KOTESOL Teacher Training Program (GKT) is an experimental teacher training program meant to provide training and support to both hagwon and public school teachers. This program aims to introduce trainees to the wider worlds of TEFL, education, and linguistics in a way that can connect advanced concepts to their daily teaching contexts, allow them to reflect on their teaching in a more developed way, and foster an interest in further professional development as an EFL instructor. The training is meant to be delivered by highly-experienced teachers from a variety of backgrounds and expertise, who will be recognized for their efforts in the form of certificates.
June 21 - Yongin, Gangnam University
Every year in June we host a BBQ for our community in order to share stories, a meal and just have some good old fun. Greg Lewis and Kristina Kauss hosted the event this year, and between the treasure hunt and angel cupcakes, everyone had a great time.
Hope to see you there next year!
