The Chinese Language Teachers Association, USA (CLTA) is now calling for proposals for its 2018 annual conference to be held at Hilton Hotel at the Washington Dulles Airport on April 6-8, 2018. The objective of the annual conference has been to provide a forum for Chinese teachers, scholars and school administrators to exchange ideas and report the latest results in their teaching and research in the areas of Chinese language acquisition, pedagogy, grammar, or new instructional technology. We encourage Chinese teachers and researchers all over the world (including non-members of CLTA) to submit a proposal to share their teaching experiences and research results.
