NTPRS 2011 : St. Louis
What a week! Stephen Krashen was the keynote speaker. The beginner track was expertly handled by Donna Tatum-Johns and Katya Paukova. A team of sixteen presenters and language experts pooled our talents to run the advanced track. The afternoons were filled with sessions that ranged from elementary to technology, truly a wide range of sessions! Not only that, but the coaching staff provided practice time for teachers who wanted to hone their skills. We had a large group of Chinese teachers, we had Native American teachers who are passionate about saving their language, and we had dedicated, fun-loving, delightful folks who made a commitment to comprehensible input teaching. The “Open Mic” night was phenomenal. Be sure to check out the songs from our talented folks. I think that handouts and links to songs will be posted on http://ntprs.org/ntprs.org/HOME.html.
