Showcasing many different ways to learn – from evening classes and language schools to distance learning, self study courses, tapes, CD’s and software – a visit can offer a practical step forward as well as the encouragement and motivation you need to start learning a language.
Whether your interested is as a beginner, an intermediate, a language teacher or a linguist, with up to 120 exhibitors and 80 talks, presentations and seminars, at the Language Show you’ll find knowledge, information, and advise as well as fun and entertainment all under one roof.
The Japan Foundation London Language Centre (JFLLC) and the Japan National Tourist Organization (JNTO) will be exhibiting at this year’s event with in depth information about Japan and the Japanese language. The JFLLC supports Japanese language education in the UK and their annual programmes, extensive library, and advice from the specialist team of advisors are all designed to promote the language in all sectors.
The Japan National Tourist Organization will also be promoting a new school matching system which has just been started to alleviate the difficulties in finding counterpart Japanese schools and greatly increase the amount of educational trips to Japan.
By establishing a direct link to the National Council for Promoting Educational Trips to Japan, this new system will help British schools (or companies/organizations working on their behalf) find a matching school in Japan for educational visits or exchange programs. So why not visit us there to discover how Japan could play a part in your future?
JNTO has a number of free tickets for entry to the Language Show to be given away to the first people to e-mail JNTO's Trade Relations Manager, Ms Yumi Takakubo at trade@jnto.co.uk. Please include your name, company name and number of tickets you would like.
JNTO's London office will be releasing a school trip guide book specially created for British teachers in February 2007. |
