Editorial Corner
Oxford University Press publishes ELT materials in Oxford and New York. OUP Japan works closely with these publishing centers on Japan-specific projects and coordinates editorial research to inform future publishing. In order to create materials that really work in classrooms in Japan, we need to listen to the views of teachers. We try to involve as many teachers as possible in the development of our new publishing.
