The American Association of Teachers of Japanese (AATJ) is an international, non-profit, non-political organization of teachers, scholars, and students of Japanese language, literature, and linguistics, which works to promote study of the Japanese language at all levels of instruction in the field and to broaden and deepen knowledge and appreciation of Japan and its culture. AATJ sponsors two conferences each year: an annual spring conference in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Association for Asian Studies (AAS) and serves as the Japanese-language co-sponsor of the annual November convention of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). It publishes the internationally recognized research journal Japanese Language and Literature twice each year and the AATJ Newsletter four times annually.
