Congratulations to our members, Amadeu Marin and Sebastiana ‘Anna’ Venuto, on winning the LTSIG Roving Reporter grant for our strand at International House BCN ELT conference. All IATEFL members can attend this great event at reduced rates. You can enrol here but places are limited to 450 and they always get filled.
This is their reaction to winning the travel grant.
About Anna Venuto:
I was born in Sicily and I got my degree in European Languages and Cultures (English, Spanish and Italian) at Catania University in 2007 and a Master in Applied Linguistics to EFL, in 2010. I’ve been working in Spain as a curious, committed and passionate English-Italian teacher since 2009, both at private and state-run schools. I’ve been a member of LTSG and IATEFL since 2015. Currently I am working at the EOI in Castellón, where besides teaching, I have also started teacher training courses for my colleagues, on blended learning and EdTech tools which can support meaningful projects to promote students’ agency and alternative assessment.
About Amadeu Marin:
I’ve been in TEFL for over 30 years. Apart from my teaching and managerial work at EOI Castelló, I also train locally and run an EdTech summer course for Pilgrims. I’ve been a member of the LTSIG and IATEFL since 2015 and presented workshops at the 2016 and 2017 annual conferences. I regularly use EdTech, have an ‘unplugged’ teaching style, take a lexical look at language learning, and have always believed that empowering the learner is essential for the success of the learning process.
The application and review:
Applicants were asked to write a review of either a session by Daniela Martino presented at the LTSIG OLLREN 2nd Annual Conference last October or this session by Tom Walton from International House, Barcelona at the IATEFL conference 2016. The travel grant winner was decided ‘blind’ by four of our committee members.
