Teachers can divide the classes into:

oral English
listening
free reading
video showing
slide showing

singing
playing games

and other non-academic settings, etc.

      

 

Although it seems the teachers have a lot of periods, yet if arranged properly, they will not feel so and they will have a lot of fun with the students.

Classes can also be held outside the classroom.

Current and former list members have taught in this setting and indicate that it is fun and much can be enjoyed while using English.

 

Lesson Plan: Teachers may find and bring to China some material for training the oral English of students or the teaching methodology of Chinese English teachers.

They are free to conduct and organize their classes.

Usually every class lasts 45-50 minutes with 5-10 minutes for break. Teachers should also prepare some English games, songs and activities in the classroom.

 

Teaching Material: Foreign teachers are required to bring some original materials and get them copied during the program (free).

They are free to use their own material and teaching methods although some of the camps will provide some ready-made books for the students. Copies will be limited to a certain amount.

 

Teaching Facilities: The classrooms have air conditioner, while some only have electric fans. All classrooms have tape recorderTV set and projectors.

However if the teachers don’t want to eat on campus, foreign teachers can eat outside on their own account during the whole program.

 

Tour: The organizer will arrange one or two-day free local tour for foreign teachers during the program.

The staff and students will also show them around the city and local sceneries during other times. Chinese cities, towns and villages are very specific and attractive.
