KOTESOL as a distinguished ELT organization has provided educators with opportunities to grow professionally and personally. On behalf of Hoseo University It has been a wonderful experience to co-host this event with KOTESOL. And it is to the KOTESOL National Conference Planning Committee that I give my deepest thanks and appreciation. Without the support and dedication of my Co-Chair, Aaron Jolly, this conference would not have achieved the level we see here today. Also I would like to thank our plenary speakers, Dr. Paul Nation and Dr. Sei-Kyung Cho, who have so graciously offered their time and expertise to our conference proceedings. The breadth of their knowledge here today lights the path before us. I would like to extend this appreciation to include our featured speakers here today, Dr. Caroline Linse, David Paul, Gye-Hyoung Yoo, Thomas Santos and Kyongnan Park. Together they represent the cutting edge of foreign language teacher development and we are grateful for their presence here today. In addition to our plenary and featured speakers, we have with us today over 30 presenters who will offer us their wisdom from their extensive experience from teaching here in Korea. To all of the devoted plenary, featured, and presenters here, thank you for your time, energy and your enthusiasm for the art of teaching. Today is a bright day for the future of English education. The opportunities before us to enhance our expertise, improve our skills and sharing in this bonding experience as we grow together, will sustain us in the year to come as we enter our classroom and offer our knowledge to our students. Let us not waste a moment, for it is the future of our students which is at stake. For them, let us nurture ourselves so that we may return to them revitalized for the lessons to come. Thank you all for your support. May the day’s offering be a reward for the sacrifices you’ve made by your presence here today. Yeonjin Hahm, Ph.D. Conference Chair Hoseo University 2 National Conference, 2006, Cheonan National Conference, 2006, Cheonan Welcome to 2006 Spring National Conference Distinguished guests, invited speakers, members of KOTESOL, ladies and gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 2006 Spring National Conference. First and foremost, my sincere thanks to everyone on the planning committee for taking time out of their busy schedules to organize this event, especially Dr Yeonjin Hahm, Chair of the Conference. Without his strong support and leadership, this conference would not be available to you here today. Appreciation is also due to Dr. Paul Nation who has flown from New Zealand to share with us his expertise and to Dr. Seikyung Cho from KyungHee University to bring us to the cutting edge of technology in the classroom. Also I would like to thank all the presenters who are here today. KOTESOL’s motto is to promote scholarship, disseminate information, and facilitate cross-cultural understanding amongst persons concerned with the teaching and learning of English in Korea. An impressive line-up of presentations is being offered and I am sure that you will be able to find something that interests you. My wish, as President of KOTESOL, is that you will return to your schools equipped with new and useful ideas and techniques to use in your classes; and that KOTESOL events such as this will make you want to tell your friends and colleagues about us. One of the emphases of KOTESOL is our intention to serve the community – not just our members, but also all the English teachers in Korea – and I am particularly pleased that a tie has been forged between the Daejeon-Chungnam Chapter and Chungnam Office of the Education. This cooperation means that we are able to reach out to a wider audience and provide them with services that we have to offer. To this end, I would like to acknowledge Superintendent Jeongsook Park, whose promotion of the National Conference to the public school teachers in Chungnam province is immeasurable. I would like to express a special gratitude to Hoseo University for their kindness and generosity in opening up their campus to us for this grand event. I hope that you, the attendees, are able to gain from this exchange of ideas, skills, and networking with other professionals. I trust that you will find the conference useful as well as challenging to your own professional development and that you return home safely tonight satisfied and rejuvenated. My best wishes to you for a productive and enjoyable day. Louisa T.C. Kim President Korea TESOL 3 National Conference, 2006, Cheonan National Conference, 2006, Cheonan Congratulatory Address Distinguished guests, international and national scholars and English teachers, I am delighted to welcome you to Hoseo University, Cheonan Campus. This is our first occasion to host the KOTESOL 2006 Spring National Conference. We are pleased to have honored experts and leading scholars here today to share their knowledge for creating a successful English language learning environment. It is thrilling to see native and non-native speakers coming together and bonding through the experience of exchanging ideas, offering support, and opening doors for our students. Hoseo University has been recognized by the Ministry of Education as a university of “Excellence.” Since its establishment in 1978, Hoseo has quickly developed into one of Korea’s prestigious universities. Hoseo was designated as the only university to operate a graduate school of venture business under the “Brain Korea 21 Project,” the most ambitious educational project since the founding of the nation. Hoseo is now a leader in the area of venture education and business development. We conduct world- class research activities and provide high quality education in the area of cutting edge technology in an attempt to keep abreast of and contribute to, the era of information and globalization. An essential component to our success has been our foreign language program. In order for our students to become world leaders in international ventures and renowned entrepreneurs, they must be able to effectively communicate in English. One of our primary long term and short term goals is to produce leaders in foreign language education. In this we have been successful. We offer a myriad of language learning opportunities for students of all levels, ages and abilities. Through international student exchanges and study aboard programs, our students improve their English skills and broaden their horizons and futures. It is because of our dedication to the foreign language programs and specifically the clear communication of English by our students that we are so elated to have such an honored gathering here today. It is hoped that by your involvement here today, our students will benefit tomorrow. Thank you very much for your participation.
