What is JALT?
JALT is the Japan Association for Language Teaching, a not-for-profit professional organization of people interested in promoting excellence in language learning and teaching. JALT publishes a monthly magazine and a biannual journal. JALT chapters hold regular meetings featuring workshops or lectures related to teaching. For information on these events throughout Japan, see the newly-expanded Kyushu English Language Teaching Events calendar. JALT also has many special interest groups with publications and web sites dedicated to a particular area of language learning or teaching. See our list of JALT SIGs for more information.
