Language Workshops for Teachers Across the Globe
TPRS Books offers various language workshops for teachers. We travel around the world to conduct training and presentations, helping teachers promote language fluency in their classrooms.
Drawing from Blaine Ray’s TPRS® language teaching method, we train teachers to make their class comprehensible by introducing books and resource materials that contain interesting stories, relatable conversations, and interactive activity ideas. Learning a new language should be fun and easy, after all.
Our team of language teachers, who have trained in and have been implementing TPRS in their classrooms, conduct our workshops. Of course, we also have Blaine Ray in our roster of presenters.
