Members of the 2018 Eltas Committee met on Feb 17th at LesBar café in the Stuttgart library where we exchanged ideas and gave updates about events, the newsletter and the website.  We all enjoyed meeting in the stylish library setting as well.   Event Manager Andi Vogt-Nas will be attending the IATEFL conference in Brighton this spring and get inspiration for new speakers and themes for our own events.  Our Chair Katrin Beringer and  new committee member Kiara Graves  plan to represent ELTAS at the Interelta meeting on April 21st. The event will be hosted by MELTA in Munich this year. All the ELTA associations in Germany meet annually to exchange ideas for developing and strengthening our teaching network. One positive outcome of the meetings is an agreement that ELTAS members can attend workshops of our ELTA partners at member rates.
