"Give them a voice"

2008.04.25
II National Conference for Teachers of English - "Resources for teachers", held in Concepción del Uruguay, Entre Ríos (April 24-26, 2008). I presented twice:
"Give them a voice" (sponsored by OUP)
and
"Getting young learners ... to write!"

The conference venue


My sponsors for the first presentation. Thanks!

Finally getting started... after a nightmarish trip! (traffic jams all over the country due to thick fog on the roads, the planned 5-hour trip finally took 9 hours!)

Pizza time on Friday evening: a chance to get to know the attendees better! :-D




Saturday morning: time to present again!






A "quiet" moment with some co-speakers and the conference organisers.

From left to right:Laura Perrotta, Gustavo González, Belén ??, Alfredo Bilopolsky, me and org #2.

Going back home on Sunday (now in the family car): police stop us all on the road due to the thick fog once again! Luckily, we're all in a good mood and eventually reach home safe and sound (after 12 exhausting hours!!!).



Warm audience, incredible organisers, great chance to meet cool teachers and get to know co-speakers better... Grateful I had the chance to enjoy this conference!

Lorena Recio Gladys, I just came by here to see at some of your pictures. As usual, I hadn't read the beginning of the post but when I came across the second picture I thought to myself "this is Concepción del Uruguay!" And I went up to check. So nice to hear that you enjoyed your conference there.
As you may know, I go every holiday there because my parents' in-law live there, so I love the place. I hope you have the change to go back some day.
See you
Lore
