Mexico DF 19th Regional MEXTESOL Conference Touches the Future

Plenary speaker Joep ven der Werff introducing the Queen of the Netherlands
The Mexico City MEXTESOL chapter hosted its 19th regional conference "Touching the Future" on Saturday, June 21st, 2008 at the Escuela Bancaria y Comercial Reforma Campus. The opening plenary by Joep ven der Werff's "Planning Lesson Planning" got the audience sharing beliefs and practices of lesson planning.
I gave my last presentation in Mexico (sniff, sniff) "Use Your Brain: Applying Brain Research in the Language Classroom" with a really fun crowd of about 35 Mexico City teachers who were full of ideas, insight and applications. I also got to meet up with one of the really driven teachers I know from my work in the State of Mexico, which was a treat. - It was fun talking with you, Florencio!
Thank you Uli Schrader for your organizing prowess, good luck on future conferences!
