On the 4th and 5th of November, Seymour College welcomed twenty-nine teachers of French and Chinese from 16 schools in SA, NT, NSW and VIC to attend the AIM training workshop (Accelerative Integrated Methodology). Seymour College also set up a two-day web conference for two teachers from N.T. who could not travel to Adelaide.

At the beginning of 2022, Seymour College supported the Language Department to invite Jen McKinney, CEO of AIM Language Learning, to provide two-day training workshops to all teachers of French and Chinese. Jen also invited Wendy Zhang from Carey Baptist Grammar School (VIC), who edited and translated AIM kits into Chinese, to co-present to our Chinese teachers about AIM.

It was a very intensive two-day workshop for all teachers, and the feedback was excellent. Seeing our teachers' willingness to discover more about AIM was terrific. All teachers of French and Chinese languages appreciated Jen McKinney and Wendy Zhang travelling to Adelaide to provide the two-day training workshop to support teachers engaged with AIM. Seymour language team will continue working on AIM, and we look forward to the future opportunity to work with the AIM team.

We would also like to acknowledge the support provided by CLTASA to all CLTASA members. And thanks to Educators SA and Catholic Office for circulating the workshop information.
