Course Content
- Workshop content has been developed by Ritsuko Nakata
(Co-Author, Let's Go) in cooperation with Oxford
University Press and is aimed at all teachers of young learners
who wish to become more confident and effective teachers.
- Workshops are run by qualified teacher-trainers from the
IIEEC
Teacher Training Center - a leader in teacher training
and children's education in Japan since 1987.
- In addition to the lectures, skills practice will provide
actual lessons in how to use flash cards and how to teach
effectively with the MAT METHOD.
- The course is conducted in English, however bilingual
course handouts will be provided.
Course Structure
The course comprises six workshops that are offered over a summer session and an autumn session. Participants have the flexibility of attending the workshops in the order that best fits their schedule. However, participants must complete the full program within two consecutive sessions in order to qualify for the certificates. As proof of attendance, participants will receive a stamp card that will be stamped at the completion of each workshop.
Certificate of Completion
Those participants that attend all six workshops and complete
a final self-assessment component are eligible to receive a
Certificate of Completion from Oxford University Press and from the IIEEC Teacher Training Center.

Course Fees / Materials
The cost for each workshop is ¥4,150 (after tax)*. This price includes a set of course handouts in English and Japanese for that particular workshop. Payment for workshops is on a 'pay as you go' basis with payment to be made on the day in cash. (Please prepare the exact amount in advance.)
*The fee has been revised on April 1st, 2014. The previous fee ¥4,000 (after tax) will be applied to all registrations made on or before March 31st, 2014. This reflects a small increase of ¥33 to the price before tax due to an increase in costs of running the program.
When participants attend their first workshop they will also receive:
- a stamp card to record the workshops they have attended
- a set of 12 flashcards
- a folder to file course handouts
