☑Who Should Attend?
Graduate students, post-docs and young faculty members at the University of Tokyo. We welcome both Japanese and international members who are in the early stages of their academic careers and who struggle to teach in English in the fields of humanities, social sciences and natural sciences.

The participants will:
・Learn basic skills of managing a class in English.
・Get tips to handle difficult situations in teaching.
・Build a network among current and future faculty members.

the major issues that teachers (as well as Teaching Assistants, Tutors and Lecturers) face when teaching in English. Then, we will explore strategies to resolve such issues.
