TEMI Seminars Yearly Schedule for 2020
2020 TEMI Seminar System for Busy Teachers!
We have adjusted our TEMI Seminars to cater especially to teachers teaching a certain English level category, namely:
Preschool
Elementary School
Jr. High and High School
Adults
Due to the Corona virus, we have transitioned to ONLINE seminars so you can join us from the comfort of your home or school.
We have rescheduled the seminars to start with the Elementary School seminar in July. Instead of morning and afternoon seminars in one day, we will have them in two consecutive weeks. Each seminar will be from 9AM-12PM. The first week will focus on methods, and the second on how to use specific materials for that specific level. The methods seminar will include observing a Little America class in action.
Revised TEMI 2020 Seminar Schedule is as follows:
