2022 Japanese Continuers Online Speaking Day (Teacher Registration)

JTAN is pleased to be able to offer an online version of our popular Continuers Speaking Day in 2022. Due to the ongoing uncertainties caused by Covid-19 for in-person events the committee has decided to run our speaking days online again in 2022.

This event will differ slightly in timing and operation again this year due to the use of the Zoom teleconferencing platform and so it is important for participating teachers to carefully read the information below when registering.

**Students must be prepared to be placed into any session, including Session 5 commencing at 1:50pm.**

Student registration HERE (this is for students to register and pay directly, not via your school)  – the password for students to access this event was sent out in the JTAN news

All students attending this event should EITHER register directly with JTAN via the link above OR be registered by you below. You must register yourself as an examiner in order for your students to access this event.

Zoom Training for Examining Teachers

Examining teachers will need to join an online training session approximately 1 week prior to the event. In this training session teachers will be shown how Zoom will be used to organise and run the event, how to use Zoom for their examining role, how to provide feedback to students, and to answer any questions they may have about the event.

Zoom Pilot Testing for Participating Students.

Students will be encouraged to login to a quick Zoom session to test their internet connection, microphone and camera.
