I attended and volunteered at the annual TALGS conference which took place this past Saturday at ECU. Before attending this conference I was unaware that it was a Linguistics conference and primarily focused for teachers and program managers of English as a second language. The keynote speaker, , Dr. Ofelia García, gave an interesting lecture on the teaching of recent immigrant children in New York Schools and the best way to go about teaching them have success in teaching English. The first focused on different language education policies and how they have changed over time. The conference and keynote lecture in particular were instructing and eyeopening.
