Celia Zubiri, because of health reasons. ...]]> Two formerly confirmed presenters have cancelled their presentations at FAAPI 2010. They are:

Celia Zubiri, because of health reasons. Get well soon, Celia! Although Celia won’t be able to make her presentation “Drama a must in the English class”, the Buenos Aires Players (Celia’s company) will perform the plays “The New York Mice” and “Shakexperience”. Find information about the plays in the Buenos Aires Players’ website.

Michael Carrier. Here’s an extract of Michael’s e-mail: “… it is with regret and many apologies that I have to cancel my presentation at FAAPI. This is due to work issues requiring me to re-arrange my schedule for urgent internal reasons, and I won’t be able to come to FAAPI. Very sorry – I was so much looking for ward to coming back to FAAPI after several years of not being able to attend. I hope you’ll be understanding and forgive me so that I can return next year! Best wishes, Michael Carrier, British Council, London”

As much as we would like to have Michael here, we totally understand that he is a very busy person and this kind of schedule modifications are normal. So, Michael, let’s start talking about FAAPI 2011!
