The Center for English as a Lingua Franca (CELF) at Tamagawa University was established in 2014 to offer transmodal and transcultural ELF classes to students across various disciplines. The ELF program has expanded greatly, serving more than 2,800 students from 2019 onwards across all eight Tamagawa colleges, and implementing the new program by offering 17 ELF courses in 2023. In addition, CELF specializes in ELF research, promoting faculty members’ academic achievements, hosting an annual forum for ELF teaching, and publishing two journals. To support the Center’s commitment to ELF, CELF Faculty Development (FD) provided diverse workshops and lectures to its faculty members. This report describes the FD activities and research achievements in 2023.
