JATNET manages a range of human, digital and physical resources which are shared with our members.
The Japan Foundation, Sydney employs a Japanese Language Consultant (JLC) for Tasmanian schools.
The JLC works with JATNET members to develop their Japanese teaching skills. This is through collaborative work in classrooms, face-to-face and online workshops, and other community events.
We are very grateful to the Japan Foundation for their ongoing support of teachers of Japanese in Tasmania.
This allocation is made based on expressions of interest from our members.
Digital resources:
Video and sound recordings

These have been created by teachers and the JLC and shared collaboratively.
The link to access these resources will be emailed to JATNET members by the Secretary each year.
