Hello! I am really excited to visit this conference! As a self taught teacher, I am mostly interested in strategies in delivering the IB School Supported Self Taught Program, and in building a network of Self Taught Tutors in as many different languages as possible! Still looking for Burmese, Marathi, Amharic and many other languages! I am a Dutch Language and Literature teacher myself, as well as Head of the non-English Language and Literature courses. Hope to meet many people, and to enjoy beautiful Copenhagen as much as last time!
