授業方法

This class is based on a Reading Circle Model. The students read one short story per week and fill out one A4 worksheet in English while reflecting on that story. They then come to class and discuss the story in small groups of four to five students. The teacher leads in developing strong groups for speaking, discussion and presentation, while facilitating and monitoring the practice of speaking English.
