Live In-Person (Day 1) & Asynchronous (Day 2) - Fall Institute Kelowna

Hey Western Canada!!!

We are SO excited to offer our 4rd Annual Fall Institute in beautiful Kelowna, British Columbia!!!

About Fall Institute

Connect in person and share best practices with teachers from across North America and around the world who share a passion for languages and innovative teaching practices.

The Fall Institute will enable new teachers to learn about the unique techniques and strategies used in the AIM, and experienced teachers to deepen their knowledge and skills.

A wealth of topics will be covered for both new and experienced AIM teachers.

AIM is a balanced literacy approach that uses effective strategies and techniques to accelerate language acquisition. Through its multimodal design, AIM is a methodology that provides support for all learners with varying learning styles, intelligences and strengths. Embedded in the design of the methodology are many principles of Universal Design for Learning and AIM has proven to be successful at ensuring that inclusion is possible in a second language classroom!

Our AIM Fall Institute will include:

• a Plenary on the first day of each workshop series;
• prize draws at each Plenary;
• a live product demonstration;
• discounts on all AIM resources for participants.

There will be live demonstration classes with students given by AIM Creator, Wendy Maxwell.
