Class Experience
US Grade 4 - 9
Hello! I am a certified ESL teacher and this is a group conversational English as a Second Language course for beginners. This means that students will practice speaking and responding. This is a one-on-one course. This means that students will have more time to ask questions, discuss, and learn in their own unique way. Students will be expected to participate, but Mr. Conway understands that speaking in a new language can be intimidating. Students will be encouraged to share their interests and contribute to topics in the class. Every class will be a time to practice, take chances, build confidence, and improve English skills. Students will respond to art, photographs, videos, short texts, and current events. They will read short stories and some non-fiction. They will practice listening and responding.
