Get ready for a date destined to dazzle! On September 16th, a sensational Saturday, we’re set to savor the sparks of knowledge and camaraderie like never before.

First, we’ve got Khanh-duc Kuttig who will help us personalize creativity at 4 pm (see more details below).

She has an MA in TESOL from Canterbury Christchurch University, teaches at the University of Siegen in Germany, has an interest in creative assessment and learner autonomy and is a recipient of the TESOL/NGL Teacher of the Year award in 2021. She is Events Manager and Treasurer for IATEFL’s Teacher Training and Education SIG, Newsletter Editor for TESOL’s Teacher Educator Interest Section and Incoming Chair of TESOL’s Professional Development Professional Council.

Afterwards, from 6 pm on, what better way to chill out and usher in October by having our very first Oktoberfest! So get into those lustrous lederhosen and delightful dirndls. It’s going to be an outrageous Oktoberfest of outstanding offerings!
