Description

Class Experience

In this ongoing class, learners will practice their public speaking skills while discussing and debating news articles from The Week Junior magazine. This is a great chance for them to learn more about the news of the world and turn that knowledge into peer discussions. Each week's topics will be based on the prior week's magazine. I will prompt learners with questions and games, but this is a peer-led conversation-style class. The goal is for the students to get more comfortable sharing...

Learners will need to review "The Week Junior" Magazine weekly.

Learner will need a subscription to "The Week Junior" magazine.

50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

This class is based on the weekly magazine "The Week Junior".
