Professional Development Seminar and Workshop:

FLED Seminar at Fatih University 
by Adam J. Simpson

At the start of March 2014, I was delighted to give a seminar to the members of the Foreign Language Education Club (FLED) at Fatih University. This was a great honour for me, as there are few more enjoyable things in this wonderful profession than sharing your ideas and knowledge with the next generation of language teachers.
