Prominent Groton Presence at Language Conference

Six members of Groton's World Languages Department attended the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages convention in Nashville, and three of them headlined well-attended workshops.

Dean of Faculty and Spanish teacher John Conner presented "The Ideal Lesson Plan," Department Head Rebecca Stanton offered "The French Media Connection," and Fanny Vera and Luis Viacava led a presentation on Peru’s national dance, "La Marinera." Chinese teacher Renee Bai and French teacher Franck Koffi joined the delegation, attending numerous workshops.

"It was a memorable three days sharing the department’s passion for languages with a national audience," said Señor Conner. The annual convention attracts more than seven thousand educators.
